Default I have & like the Schroth, but am too skinny. I crank the seat higher to get it tight on my lap.

Call the 2Bennett guys... tell 'em Kevin sent you.

In the meantime, I'll be eating more.

Default Mounting Advice... (Ignore Beavis below! :)

Forcefully yank out the back seat bottom by grabging under the legs and pull up. Chuck it on to a dirty drive way. Remove out the two 17mm bolts holding the back seat seatbelt mounts for the left rear seat. Slide the Shroth mounts eyelets over the bolt and crank 'em back down (might want to ask the dealer what proper torque is...). Next, remove the plastic cap where the stock seatbelt reciever goes into the left side of the drivers seat. Take a climbing carabeener (REI or any climbing shop... brand new only... Black Diamond Straight gate, Wire gate D shaped 'beener for you fellow climbers... makes it much easier!). Thread it through the loop in the stock belt nylon where it attaches to the seat. Thread the Schroth loop into the 'beener and the other side clicks into the factory clicker.

I am not sure on price as my buddy bought it from 2Bennett for his RS6, but it didn't fit the seats so he bro'd me on it. I think somewhere around $220, but I am only guessing.

Default I have a new/unused in box Schroth for sale!

It's Black. Like I said - unused. Once I got the Porsche I stopped tracking my Audi's so I never mounted it. I paid about $150. It is the type designed to hook into the back seatbelt and greatly minimize the install hassles. See the link.


Make me an offer!
