   umm you cant,.. you need buckets as they need to be threaded through the holes that you get in the top of buckets.

   Harnesses and standard seats are cool imo.
   
   Its quite a retro thing to do.

   yea you can i've got it done but i had to remove the plastic thats covering the pretensioners. It just unscrews though so was no problem. My harnesses are 3 point snap in. I'll get you a pic 2moz

    i have it done, i love the comfyness of the vts seats and they arent bad at holding you in either, id imagine i'd prefer a long trip in my seats rather than some buckets
    anyway, pic

    they're tidy mate. same attachments as me - catch's on the side and bolt in on the back. the eyebolts should come with them.
