Why Upgrade Your Racing Seat?
- Control — a locked-in driving position improves steering input, feedback, and consistency
- Safety — FIA 8855-1999 approved shells provide correct head and shoulder support in an impact
- Consistency — less fatigue, better lap-to-lap stability over long stints
- Harness compatibility — correct shoulder and lap strap routing holes for FIA 8853-2016 harnesses
FIA Approvals & Compliance
Most seats in this collection carry FIA 8855-1999 homologation. Always confirm your event and class regulations before purchase — requirements vary by series and can be updated each season. Contact our team if you need compliance advice for MSNZ or Motorsport Australia events.
Fitment Guide
- Sizing: Standard and XL shells available. Aim for a firm hip and shoulder fit — the seat should hold you securely without restricting movement
- Mounting: Most OMP shells use side-mount brackets. Use the correct OMP brackets and rated hardware for your vehicle
- Harness clearance: Ensure shoulder strap openings align correctly with your FIA harness and HANS/FHR device
- Head support: The top of the seat shell should be at or above helmet level for correct head restraint in a side impact
