I believe that the tag for harnesses is now two years, is this right?

| Yes two years for an SFI 16.1 But 5years for an FIA harness due to better quality european webbing. Some are dual tagged,we will take the FIA tag in this case. |

from the 2011 rule book
"For sportsman classes running slower than 7.50 seconds with a roll cage, FIA Specs 8854/98 and 8853/98 are acceptable although it should be noted that these belts are not supported under FIA rules in the rest of Europe. These belts have a 5 year certification life" |

Adz,
I can supply the TRS harnesses certified to SFI and FIA spec.
They will last you 2 years on the SFI tag in case you have a huge engine at the back of the workshop or are racing in europe any time soon, and the FIA tag will last you for 5 years.
Its worth noting that the 5 years runs from the END of the year of manufacture, so if you buy from me in january you will get 2012 for free. TRS make them for me on order, other places might keep a stock. Worth doing for the extra year.
Cheers
Ed |
