DOT said NO!!
Well the USA goverment in an effort to keep us safe, (the DOT) would not allow the LP670-4SV OEM Factory racing harness into the USA for USA cars NOR as an option to purchase..
Well got my set in today, via a good frined in Europe..hope to have them installed this weekend on my LP670-4SV White #12 car. Hardware and mounting bolts/points are the same on ALL car, USA and Euro..will bolt right in.
LOVE them!!

Should think about installing those seats as well, they look a little more comfortable than the stock ones.

I would think those belts are safer than regular belts, no?

Some of it has to do with rescue and ease of escape. When you are upside down and the car is on fire or under water, there needs to be no complication. Also if an emergency worker is not familiar with them getting you out may take longer. Those precious seconds count. Originally Posted by KandyRedCoi
