willans harness

[tom]

Santa brought me a pair of willans harnesses (to DAX spec),
the trouble is there is a label on the box stating that they are NOT 'E' APPROVED !

I assume that i can't fit these for SVA, How come Dax sell them if they are not suitable?

Has anybody had this problem and what do i do?

Also when do dax reopen ?

merry christmas

Hi Tom.
Don't worry, they are fine. They are not approved for racing but are fine for road use.

Hi Tom,

They re-open Monday 5th Jan.

SVA does not require E marked belts - you can have equivalents or better. The mounting arrangements will be more of an issue to the inspector than a Willans harness that obviously exceeds the standard Britax offering....

Thanks very much for that chaps, santa is 'off the hook'.

Now back to the turkey.......

Does somebody know where Arcoll harnesses are sold? I am searching for 3 inches wide, FIA approved blue harnesses?

Try TRS, they will custom make belts to any length, colour, fixing type etc. and will give FIA approval

The GD harnesses are not FIA approved because as wazovolan says, you need them to be 3" wide. The GD ones are slimmer (and hence look a bit neater)

Thanks for your reply; I noticed on the site TRS that some harnesses had the label FIA approved but maybe this was according to the previous regulations. Now, it has to be 3 inches wide.
