I noticed on the drive Sunday that my chauffeur was holding herself in her seat, bracing as it were. I wasn't sure what it was at first though I suspected as much. Like her, I find the Mazda seats slippery and lacking in Holding ability and get frustrated with the OEM Belts inability to hold you in place properly, snuggly as you need to be when really driving.

So you can install 4 point restraint and aftermarket seats for $4-5k OR Give this number a try... I have "HEARD" good things but I haven't purchased one myself.

This "CG-lock" should be a huge help. CG-Lock.com Website



Anyone tried this? I'm probably going to give it a shot, cause I hate not being secured when out playing.

 

Be Certain to check out the "How TO" Videos. Turn the Volume WAY up though, cause the "Rockin" sound track just shouldn't be missed.

 

I have used one for 2 years.....it is better than the stock belt. But I still want a harness

It has to be installed backwards on the RX-8...or you can cut the tab off the buckle to make it fit forwards.

 

Give me a couple of days. I'm going to see if I can get us a "club" discount. :D

 

Yup works great! you do have to use it backwards though. no big deal.

 

got pics, and how much are they. did you guys and gals, put them on both front seat belts?

 

Price is 42.95 each. I'm waiting to get the "coupon code" which will get everyone who uses it $5 off.

 

Any safety issues with not having the "play" in the seat belt.

 

No. You are still able to slide sideways out of the shoulder restraint in the event you point the wrong side skyward. If anything, you're safer 'cause you wont be slamming into the lap belt, and it wont ride up to your waist and thus bi-sect you.

 

A seat belt lock for a child's car seat does the same thing for a couple of bucks. I've used one to keep my butt planted during autocrossing and it works fine.

Just head to the "Performance Driving", er, I mean car seat section of Toys R Us, Walmart, etc.

 

hmmm great thinking.

 

WHOA... Does it still allow the shoulder strap to move freely? Please tell us more.

 

It looks like it works the same way as the CG-lock without the ability to tighten it easily and without the automatic release when you unbuckle.

 

kristopher, do you have any pics?
