Hi,new on here.I am also on the deon forum,but wondered if anyone on here could help with my tiger avon build.Does anyone know where I would stand as regards seat belts or 4 point harnesses in respect of sva or soon to be iva?

hi,I have the seat pad set that tiger supply but have learned that these will be no longer any good as they now need headrests.so these have been sidelined and some corbra 7 roadster seats ordered.

My Cobra 7 seats *just* squeacked through the IVA test. The height of the slots for the seatbelts is marginal if you use full harnesses. Mine acutally failed by 1mm until I persuaded the tester the cushion would compress with me sitting on it.....

hi guys
on to some thing else.anyone come across front side indicators/ repeaters that are ok for the iva men. the ones supllied by tiger don't conform as they are too far from the edge of my car (more than 400mm in from the widest part).

hi
I'm just about to bond and rivett the body to the chassis,but I am a bit concerned about all the movement in the shell when sitting on the chassis.It's correctly seated down but the rear wings seem to flex alot.Is this common, and does it get any better when it's bonded and rivetted.Seems really cheap and nasty-I can imagine the rear body section vibrateing all over the place when driving the car.help-any ideas? ian

Hi again
does anyone know if the old tiger supplied fuel tank is ok for the new IVA rules?
