I am thinking of getting one.


It is perfect, I even send the shifter to cut and shorten. Very nice upgrade for any type of driving.

I just took them off yesterday, it comes on when the door is open. But then I have a roll cage and door bar coming up next week, where the door bar install will need to remove the LED.

You will need a race seat to use a harness. So try getting the seat first and see how you go.

I found something name "dickstrap by koolmat" on internet. I know it sound strange, but this should solve the problem with the hole the require on the seat, I really don't want to give up my unique looking leather seats.

.. naw, not the balaclava.
I just like the matte black color look to the helmet. is that 2 toned? or just the sun shining against it..

You can't use the harness shoulder straps with the factory seat. They will fall off.

Just swap in a bucket seat for race days.
