jevansio Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Homer approved I'm after one of these and UK suppliers are thin on the ground, I will be ordering one from Dusty shortly, I just wanted to see if anyone else was interested in getting one as if so it would be a good time to get a batch sent over. FYI they are a bar that bolts behind the seats which you can attach your harnesses to. This is due to bolting the directly to the rear seatbelt points in the Supra is not technically safe.
