i just got a pair of harnesses from another user but i didnt get the hardware to go with it....has anyone installed these without the included bolts for the rear? what is the size of the bolt/washer/spacer that you used...

any help would be appreciated

 

I used the stock bolt and no spacers. My harness came new with no hardware.

 

yeah if you do it *just* right it with the required bending anyways it *shouldn't* be much of an issue. I'll take a look when the sun comes out tomorrow and see if I cat get a size for you.

They call for a special bolt/washer, but I just used the OEM with no detrimental effects.
Then again, I didn't roll it over, either.

 

i just installed using the stock bolts and it went it just fine! im about to go give em a test but they went in without an issue

 

See #5 on page 8

I also installed with the stock bolts.

 

Stock bolts, no issues for me.

 

I'd contact HMS motorsports and get the right hardware. You won't know if another solution will work or not until it's too late. Also, it can't be very expensive.

 

This is what a friend of mine did.....and he got new hardware for a very reasonable price.

 

Not just 'stock', the bolts that are already there. Just unscrew them, put the harness in between the factory belts and the bolt, and screw the bolt back in. No spacers or special hardware necessary.

 

I wouldn't suggest that as it shortens the bolt length in the body. To what effect I am not sure, but I wouldn't take a chance on it not performing like it was designed to.

 

I just ordered the bolt, spacer, & washer from HMS Motorsport. They were very cordial and helpful and it cost $6. I'm thinking there had to be a reason Schroth didn't use the stock piece.

 

I used the stock bolt and washer and did roll it over. It worked just fine.

 

Resurrecting an old thread...

WOW - so easy. I called HMS Motorsport, and got the hardware VERY cheap. 888-467-3269 And they are sending it out today...
