[KingMorzan1]

Man if u are really askin on how much REALER they look then the real ones don't fricking buy em! U show know if u payin 80 dollars on ebay n come out of Taiwan thyre fake... don't bank on buying and being real

Why is there an expiration date on them?

Good vid man, This will really help me out

I got scammed on mine. thing is tho, side by side everything is 90% the same. no plastic lock just no carbon insert, tags and patch are only things that are different. they're getting real good at making fakes. even making the quality the same is almost scary. at least it works, just disappointing it's not really FIA approved.

thanks man, i was just looking up some harnesses, and im pretty sure for the price they were fake! good video.

Yes 2006 and older Takata harnesses have Takata corporation under the Takata logo. You should not ever buy those anyway. Real or fake since they are all expired.

@YousefiMDS are these street legal harnesses?

Looks like you can unload yours to 222thekidd, at least he knows the risks and you can recover a portion of your out of pocket!...

[222thekidd]

no there not for track just driving around town ..i just dont want them to me noticeably fake are they ?or do the look more real than fake

[tak915]

@222thekidd i really dont recommend trusting ur life with a fake harness man, if u want em for show then yea maybe but for the same price has the the fake takatas u cant get a REAL corbeau racing harness tht has met all the sfi standards

@222thekidd NEVER encourage fake products. Save the fuck up and buy real ones. If you can't afford them; tough shit. This stuff's expensive for a reason. I'd apologise for the rant, but I have no time for people that even consider fakes. Do you really want to put your, or your passengers, safety in jeopardy? This is the reason the car modifying scene loses credibility...people replicate stuff that was once a sign of status, and it all becomes undermined.

[222thekidd]

is the fake one still good though is is strong and safe.. would people think ts a real one???because want one and i can afford the real one ...what do u think is the replica worth buying ??help please

[YousefiMDS]

@222thekidd I would not buy the fake ones if you are tracking your car or plan to use them replacing your seat belts. There are tons of safety regulations in place to save your life if you want to go with harness setup over a safetybelt.

If you wish to purchase the fake ones for just looks then these new fake ones will do. BUT be warned do not use them for safety b/c of the material and they are not SFI approved. Think this way, would you use fake brake pads on your car?
