Need a little help here. I did a quick test fit of a used harness bar I won on ebay. It came off another 914.
As the pic shows, I am struggling getting it to fit with the existing seat belt bracket. As you can see, because of the mounting plate of the bar, the existing seat belt bracket sits at an odd angle (it should hang straight down). The original belt is still usable at this angle, but it does make it bind somewhat. Am I missing something or is this just how it is? My idea was to keep the bar mounted in the car permentally, but of course use the standard belts for day to day driving. I appreciate any tips, thanks! Attached image(s)

JR,
You are welcome to come over and look at the harness bars in both our 914s. Betty's is a 911 bar (yes it fits) that has an adjustable link at both ends. You just unscrew the link, slip the factory belt guide over it, and put it back together. It works fine. Mine was made with holes for the stock belts. Sorry.. no pictures, camera battery is dead. |
