Best Road-Legal 4-Point Harness for an MEV Exocet – Our Top Recommendation
A customer recently reached out to GSM Performance with a specific request:
“Could you recommend a road-legal 4-point seat harness for an MEV Exocet that I can attach to the harness bar?”
The MEV Exocet is a lightweight, kit-built exoskeleton car, making it crucial to choose a harness that provides a secure fit while maintaining road legality. After considering harness length, mounting compatibility, and safety features, we immediately recommended the TRS Clubman Clip-In 4-Point Harness Belt.
This high-quality road harness is designed to wrap around the harness bar at the rear of the Exocet, providing a strong, neat, and safe installation. With long shoulder straps, clip-in fittings, and an easy-to-use push-button buckle, this harness delivers secure support without requiring FIA approval, making it ideal for road use and non-competitive track days.
Below, we’ll break down the key features of the TRS Clubman 4-Point Harness, explain the differences between clip-in and bolt-in harnesses, and provide more non-FIA road harness options for those looking for alternative designs.
TRS Clubman Clip-In 4-Point Harness Belt – The Perfect Choice for the MEV Exocet
The TRS Clubman Clip-In 4-Point Harness Belt is one of the best road-legal harnesses available, offering a high-quality yet affordable solution for track-inspired driving without the higher cost of FIA-approved harnesses. Designed for clubman-level road and track day use, this harness features 2-inch-wide webbing, a push-button release buckle, and adjustable shoulder straps, making it a great fit for open-frame vehicles like the MEV Exocet.
Key Features:
- Fully road-legal 4-point harness – Designed for road cars and non-competitive track use.
- Long shoulder straps – Ideal for wrapping around a harness bar, ensuring a secure and tidy fit in open-top vehicles.
- 2-inch-wide webbing throughout – Provides strong, comfortable support without excess bulk.
- Push-button automotive release buckle – Easy to operate while remaining secure under high-speed conditions.

Why It’s Perfect for the MEV Exocet
- The shoulder straps are long enough to wrap securely around the harness bar, ensuring correct fitment without excess slack.
- The clip-in design makes installation simple, allowing for a strong, removable connection.
- The road-legal design provides added safety without requiring an FIA-approved harness.
While this harness is ideal for spirited driving and non-competitive track days, it is not FIA-approved, meaning it cannot be used in regulated motorsport events. However, for MEV Exocet owners looking for a safe, legal, and cost-effective harness solution, the TRS Clubman 4-Point is the perfect choice.
Alternative Non-FIA TRS Road Harness Options
Clip-In vs. Bolt-In Harnesses – Which One Should You Choose?
When selecting a harness for your vehicle, one of the most important choices is between clip-in and bolt-in fittings. Both installation types have advantages, depending on your driving style and how often you plan to remove the harness.
Clip-In Harnesses:
- Quick and easy to install and remove – Ideal for cars that are used for both daily driving and track days.
- Uses clip fittings that attach to eye bolts, allowing you to detach the harness when not in use.
- Perfect for MEV Exocet and open-top vehicles, where easy removal is beneficial.
Bolt-In Harnesses:
- Permanently secured to the car, offering a stronger, more fixed solution.
- Requires bolting through the chassis or mounting points, making installation more time-consuming.
- Better suited for dedicated track cars or vehicles where the harness will always remain installed.
For MEV Exocet owners, we recommend clip-in harnesses due to their ease of installation and removal, especially if the car is used for both road and track use. However, for drivers who want a permanent harness setup, bolt-in options offer maximum security.
Final Thoughts – Choosing the Best Harness for Your MEV Exocet
If you’re looking for a road-legal 4-point harness for your MEV Exocet, the TRS Clubman Clip-In 4-Point Harness Belt is the best option available.
