Has anyone seen an alternative to the Tank Plates?

The down side to the 3 inch harness is you can't just push it back through the seat holes because the holes are to small for the adjusters, so I just put them on the side of the seat when not in use like so.

Lee, this is so sick

Thanks Mark! Couldn't have done it without your help.

Did i read this right, you cant pull the shoulder belt back through the seat?

hcsi99 · 05-07-2014, 08:31 PM

Nope, can't pull them back through. Maybe with a 2 inch harness.

cornerspeed92 · 05-07-2014, 08:40 PM

Damn!

hcsi99 · 05-07-2014, 08:41 PM

That's what I said when I was installing the harness.

cornerspeed92 · 05-07-2014, 09:18 PM

Im assuming you had to start threading with the back/end of the harness?

hcsi99 · 05-07-2014, 09:18 PM

Yep

I sent a few emails today to Speedware and they sent me back a quote for everything I need...$1899.

I don't see why the Tank Plates cost so much, I've tried looking elsewhere but can't find it anywhere. I'm fine paying the price for the harness bar and harnesses but the damn Tank Plates are killing me. It's over $700 for the pair! Does anybody know of somebody selling some used ones?

^^^^ wow that is pricey! maybe some one with the plates could go to a metal fab shop and see how much it'd cost to get a some fabbed? way less then 700 for the pair im guessing!

I know! It has to be way less than $700, it's just a piece of metal.

anyone who has the tank plates would you be willing to go to a shop and get quoted for a similar piece? we could get a group buy on it or something!

Sorry, I'm not taking those things out. You might be better off going to a machine or fabricating shop with your car and tell them what you're looking for and see if the can fab something up.
