    Can you really put a price on safety, though?

    Wouldnt buy off of that ebay shop? but you would from a shop that sells books, tshirts and dvds?

    A DVD doesn't stop me from getting brain damage or worse when I fly through the windscreen.

    As for the links,
    Top brand, top supplier, more or less the same price!

    As Roop says, if the safety of you and your passengers isn't worth the extra £100 then go for it.

    DW sells dvds and harnesses?

    That seller has blinds and harnesses?

    What does it matter what else they sell? The product is the same regardless of the source - and securon as mentioned are a good brand

    OK, I see what you're getting at. Driftworks is a top motor sport company who knows what they are doing as opposed to ebay shop (like the one in that link) that clearly buy a job lot of whatever comes out of China this week.

    i would only buy a harness that is new and in date unless i knew the history of it.
    you seen to be implying that securon are a no name pay your money take your chance company.
    a decent harness is only as good as the tin it is bolted through.
    im going to guess a lot of the products from DW come from china as there the only fuckers with an industry.

    been looking for harnesses and found a local rally company that do TRS 4point FIA harnesses with 3" shoulder straps/ 2" lap avalible in red, black & blue for £75

    non-FIA with all 2" straps - £47

    Brand new :thumbs:

    Prob worth hunting around, ebay hasn't always got the best bargains....
