I'm about to put Sparco Evo 2's in my F82. Does anyone know what the coding settings are to turn off the airbags and seat belt lights?

Just having a factory 3 point belt feels seriously scary.
Your 'track' setup is dangerous - even for daily driving. A small fender bender could crush a disk in your back due to the mounting angle.

We're not advising you because we have nothing else to do.

Here is the link to the product page at Vetteworks: http://www.vetteworksonline.net/cata...roducts_id=163

I just installed on my Quickfit to make sure the over the shoulder harness belts would fit through the openings. You do need to remove the camlock to do so, but they are removed with by pushing a pin in the two holes on back of the camlock.
Thanks for the find, I think I’ll give this a try.

Although if you use a HANS device this may interfere with the side straps...

Yeah ~ I just use the stock belt when I am not at the track. I'm planning on

a half cage ~~ Following other members valuable advice. BUT not welded.

I don't plan on rolling my car over EVER. I don't jeopardize my cars ever.

Thank you ~!!

No one plans on rolling their car or getting in an accident. Dude you are seriously stupid about this, your logic is flawed. Either at the track or not, you are endangering your life with your harness mounting angle. The fact that you continually have been brushing past this point to validate your purchase is sad, but has the potential to be fatally sad. Fix it.

I have a brand new StudioRSR F80 Cartesian cage that I would like to sell if anyone is looking for a bolt-in 1/2 cage.

Please send me a PM for details if you are interested.

Just installed Recaro Sportster CS and it made driving a lot more pleasurable when throwing the car around. Anyone on here successfully code off the Driver Restraint System code? Saw a couple other threads that dropped the codes but I was not successful.

Contact Alex @ Alpine. He coded out all the warnings for my car. PM me if you can't find his contact info.
