OMP TRS-E Steel Frame FIA 8855-1999 Approved Car Seat - Black (XL)

While the TRS-E offers good support, it is designed as a competition seat. For daily driving, comfort might be a consideration compared to OEM seats. Its primary purpose is enhanced safety and support in demanding driving conditions.

The XL size is wider and/or longer to accommodate larger drivers. A key difference is that the XL size is side-mount only, whereas standard sizes typically offer both side and base mounting options.

Installation typically requires standard automotive tools for mounting hardware. However, the specific tools will depend on the type of mounting frames or adaptors you use.

This seat is designed for 4, 5, or 6-point harnesses. While it might be possible to route a 3-point belt through it, it is not recommended as it bypasses the intended safety features and harness slots. For optimal safety, use with compatible multi-point harnesses.

The exact weight varies slightly by size, but the TRS-E typically weighs around 10-11 kg. This makes it relatively lightweight for a steel-frame seat.

Always use high-quality, motorsport-rated mounting hardware. Follow the instructions provided with your mounting kit and the seat. Ensure all bolts are torqued to the manufacturer's specifications and regularly check them for tightness.

Ensure you have purchased the correct type of mounting hardware (e.g., vehicle-specific frames, universal side mounts) compatible with the TRS-E seat and your vehicle. Check the seat's mounting dimensions against the specifications of your chosen brackets.

Ensure the harness straps are correctly routed through the designated slots on the seat. Check that the harness manufacturer's instructions are being followed and that the harness is properly anchored to the vehicle.

This may occur with prolonged exposure to sunlight. Consider using seat covers when the vehicle is parked outdoors. Clean gently with appropriate upholstery cleaners as per care instructions.

Adjust or remove the leg cushions to find a more comfortable and supportive position. Ensure the seat is mounted at the correct height and angle for your driving posture.
