Genki steering wheel and 5 point belts with seat

I just recently purchased a genki custom steering wheel with hub and a 5 point seat belt with racing seats.
I need a few tips for best installation for a 96 honda civic Ds
Thanks

ebay check hondatech. but i mean... installing a seat and steering wheel is pretty straight forward.. the seat has 4 bolts under it that holds the rails to the car. hopefully your 'racing' seats came with rails or you will be out of luck.

Re: Genki steering wheel and 5 point belts with seat

but in all honesty dont use that steering hub. i heard terrible thingys about the ebay hub breaking off and the steering wheel coming off. VERY dangerous.

Re: Genki steering wheel and 5 point belts with seat

also when buying a harness off ebay you DO get what you pay for, may sure its a legit brand, not some knock offs, that harness is the only thing keeping you in place if you get into a wreck. Also make sure you install it correctly, its deff recommended professional install, if you install is wrong, you are going for a wild ride if you get into a wreck. I knew a guy who thought he was all bad *** with his harness, till he got into a wreck on the freeway, the bolts going into the car body gave way, and he slammed his head into his wheel, not fun when your driving 110km/h then go to 0km/h in a few meters

Yeah, it's a great idea to buy all the things that could potentially save (or end) your life on eBay. Nothing but the best, eh?

nah man, for one, those aren't jdm parts. two, they're obvious knock-offs we've all seen since the beginning, and some of us have unfortunately learned the hard way by buying these products.

you get what you pay for.
