OK, I just took the harnesses out of my car, as instructed. My question is, how does this make me safer at an autocross? I will be using belts in 37 year old car, they are not frayed or torn, but... :?:

I believe that the OEM belts can't be more than 20 years old, regardless of condition:

Factory belts more than 20 years old, or visibly frayed or damaged at any age,
must be replaced with new belts.
