Author	Subject: quick release/aircraft style harness buckles
clen666 Seasoned Pro Location: Co.

How many of you have these fitted to a road going car and do you get any grief from the MOT man or any run-ins with the plod? ________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look'

Just wanted to see what people's experiences have been ________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look'
