Schroth Harness

Hey whats up everyone? I am about to purchase a pair of Schroth 4 point harnesses that are used. The problem I am having is that he says its missing the rear connector. Can anyone tell me exactly what is missing? Is it worth buying? Do they just sell what is missing? Thanks for the help

We are Schroth dealer and we can get the ends for you but last time I got a set they weren't very cheap so make sure you get a really good deal on the belts. email me and we can get you the ends if you need.

I guess it really depends on how much it costs for the part that's missing. I paid $200 for 2 complete harnesses...

Good Lord that is horrible. I'm not a fan of 4 points for anything other than autocross, but if I saw them mounted like that I wouldn't even get in the car.

Schroth harnesses are fine, but not when they are mounted like that. Too much downward angle is not good for your spine.

Those Schroth quickfit harness' are designed to be mounted that way. They have been tested & TUV & DOT approved. Mounting any other harness that way is not a good idea due to spinal compression like Andy has said.
