Finally, the end of the sage for the heli-coil inserts, (Lemans Cap base) Coils are now loaded up with Marglass. Remember to drill out the body one size over the coil size for the Marglass fill the holes also with Marglass and shove it all together while the Marglass is wet..

Hey DV
Do we need any kind of trim rings for where the shoulder straps come through the body? I've seen some somewhere, but not sure if we need them or not.
Finishline has these http://www.finishlineaccessories.com...f8620a4579245e
Let me know what you think...

Cpt...
Not used in a CR's. Seatbelts are all connected from the frame to the driver instead of bolting to fiberglass like a lot of Cobras!
Pretty cool talking about hooking seat belts up huh?
