now here's a very interesting solution to the dilemma of trying to get PE belts and harnesses to actually glue to seats. I'm certainly interested in the F-14 set as I have the Eduard Danger Zone kit in my stash. My concern is if the belts can be bent for a more realistic shape, and just how much do they cost. Joel

Hi Joel, take a look at my previous report about these seatbelts HERE. There are more pictures of these belts and some of them present the seatbelts already glued in place and their flexibility.
