Hi

I was looking for places that sell TVR styled seat belt pads and came across this one which looks ok.

Has anyone put these on their cars or something similar?

Any recommendations for ones that people have fitted in the past and look good?

Thanks!

Yup, those are the ones!

Great! Good to hear they are good quality. I wasn't sure from the pics.

Thanks!

Okay, added these to my Sagaris - very nice for the price. I also played around with fitting a seat belt warning light as well in a similar fashion as I've seen in a later Sagaris. Not exactly the same, but looks quite nice.

If the ignition is on and the seat belt is not plugged in, then the light is on. When it is plugged in, light goes off.














Should really have posted this in the Sagaris forum, but no idea how to move it biggrin

Hmm, I think I may have a spare pair. Let me check over the weekend. I did originally way them from someone on eBay.

Still working fine, so I might be convinced to part with the spare set.

Any other mod you have done recently or through out the years? I have just done the bonnet mount on my Tuscan, gettin the start button in, putting in new LED lights and changing my wheels to SpectraFlare......
Mhahaha! Where to start? biggrin

Seriously - I have done lots of stuff to the Sag since this time, fixing "design" issues and generally uprating bits and pieces.

Email me with what your areas of interest are - I have probably done something in it...

Any news matey on the pads? Your stereo, What model is that buddy? Looks good.
I'm getting the Evora out of storage tomorrow for a service. I think it is in there.

Its a 2010-2011 Clarion model - discontinued now, but really nice spec.

I did look into a system like that, but I'm using Dom's ECU now which has a different MS on it.

It is OBDII compatible though, so Dom was going to look at doing something for me which would
send live data through to the vid display (similar to GTR).

I just need to remind him or it biggrin

...and yes, sorry, I forgot to check the boot of the Evora this morning when it went in for a service.

I'm getting it back in a few days, so I'll check it then... : getmecoat:

I won't have the car back this week, mate, so I won't be able to look until next week at the earliest.

It is waiting for parts from Lotus.

D&C Trim made me a pair of pads up while they were doing the interior. smile
Hi Dani, Car is due to be delivery to my home tomorrow but I'm not back until the 6th July so no pics until then, sorry. Having said that, I can ask my wife.
TBH - any decent trimmer could do it. I know of a few who have biggrin

I find that odd. I spoke with a trimmer in Essex a couple of years back as well as Castle Sports Cars (a while back as well) and they were happy to do me TVR pads. I just gave them a pic of what I wanted.

I've also had trimmers do something similar for a few other cars I restored over the years and they did them as
well.

But...

Not been able to find them.

They may be in other cars or in storage.

Someone is checking if they are in the Sagaris, but if not, then I can't help as
they could be in my "storage rooms" which means forget it really biggrin

Well, I found one in my SLK yesterday by chance, so the other is probably floating around in there somewhere.

But off to Sweden later today, so won't be able to find the other one under when I'm back.

Let me check my records and get back to you. I seem to remember they were fairly cheap, but can't remember the exact amount. Will try and look tonight.

It would have to be post it out to you I think. Easiest way.
