Seat Belt
The following is a general guide to install racing seats into your car. We only provide these instructions to give you an idea of what you will need to do in order to install the race seats. We highly recommend that you have your seats installed by a professional experienced in aftermarket seat installation.
Removing Your Existing Stock Seats
Start with your driver side first and locate the four bolts that hold the seat in, two up front and two in back. Starting with the rear two bolts remove the plastic covers over them and remove the bolts. Be sure to recline the chair so it is in an upright position and the weight is evenly distributed, so when you remove the front bolts of the seat it won't fall on top of you causing injury.
After removing the front two bolts, gently lean the whole chair onto it's back and undo all of the remaining connections to it by locating the seat belt wire attached to the female end of the seat belt socket (clip). You will also want to undo any electrical wires that were connected to the original stock seat. The most convient way to remove the seats is to roll it onto its side so it makes an "L" and swing the seat out following with the back of the chair until it is completely out of the car.
With the seat out of the car, look on the side where the seat belt receiver is. There is a plastic cover that you'll need to remove with a phillips screw driver, with one screw in front and one in back. With it removed, you'll see a bolt attaching the seatbelt to the seat. Remove this bolt (it's very long so keep twisting) Now that you have the bolt off, put the plastic part back on using your phillips screw driver.
Installing Your New Aftermarket Racing Seats
Assemble your seat brackets and sliders if they did not already come assembled. The pieces are made to face in a specific direction so don't install them backwards. Remember seat sliders have to face forward for your seat to move.
The aftermarket seat bracket will have holes for the seat belt receiver, so screw it in.You may need to remove some of the thick spacers so the seat will fit into your car, but do not remove them if you have room for them.
Attach the aftermarket bracket to your race seat before placing it into the car. Test fit and see if you like the height of the seat, adjust accordingly if you can. Don't be surprised if your new seat brackets that you ordered for your race seat do not fit the existing holes. This is very common because these seats are made to fit several makes of vehicles and not specifically to any one kind. Just make new ones after the test fitting.
If you have a race harness (4 or 5 Point harness) now is the best time to attach the belts.
Not every bracket is made the same. Attach the front bolts in loosely, then try to put in the rears. Use a hammer if you have to so the bracket holes will line up. Just be safe about it and don't damage the bracket.
Securely tighten all of the bolts to the car. If they are loose, you could cause severe injury or even death to yourself. If you installed sliders and you can not slide the seat freely, check how you assembled it and reinstall it.
If you did a good job, do the same for the passenger side. If not, hire help!

Kit Compass
I'm planning a winter wilderness camping trip this year and i was wondering if you could give me some idea's?
These are the items i'm bringing with me so far, maybe you could give me some more idea's.
1. Magnesium fire starter(water proof)
2. 30 by 30 foot tarp with 100 feet of hemp rope
3. Multi-tool with built in knife
4. 4 days worth of food(14 day trip)
5. First-aid kit
6. Thermal blacket and sleeping bag
7. Hunting knife
8. 100 feet of fishing line and 10 hooks
9. Map and compass
10. Camping gear like cup, spoon, knife, fork and so on.
Why are you bringing both a hunting knife and a multi-tool with a built in knife? This seems redundant. And consider changing our your hemp rope (will absorb water) w/ a nylon rope.
Some other things:
- hat and gloves
- layered clothing (long underwear, fleece pants and top, fleece jacket, windproof jacket - no cotton)
- backpacking stove with fuel (white gas/Coleman fuel type stoves may work better in the cold than the canister types)
- for eating utensils try only bring a large thermal mug and a spoon - the cup can act as a bowl and a cup and the spoon is a very versatile utensil and take the place of a knife to cut soft stuff and spread stuff like a knife - the fork is just redundant.
- skis or snowshoes
- a sled to put your stuff in and haul (I have used a modified "kiddie" sled in the past

Knife Leather
A variety of hunting knives are now available, with each of the leading brand makers claiming their product to be sharper, durable and assuring lifetime guarantee. The selection of the knife depends on the type of animal to hunt, whether big or small, and the mode of hunting opted, whether for meat or trophy.
Hunting knives are often made with blast-finished stainless steel, fixed or replaceable blade constructed to last a lifetime. There are two fundamental knife styles: folding and fixed blade. Fixed blades are comparatively stronger and immovable, permanently fixed in the centre. They are provided with nylon sheaths for safe carrying. Special hunter revolver knives have multiple uses. These contain more than one blade, swapped to perform multiple functions like fishing, hunting, skinning etc. Easy to carry folding knife uses spin and lock mechanism allowing safe closing and this can be carried in your pocket.
Based on the blade designs, knives are classified into drop point, clip point and skinning knives. The thick-bodied curved blade of drop point knives allows quick skinning without damaging the meat, breaking and removing hard tissues, bones etc. Clip point knife is an excellent choice for infrequent hunters as the specified pointing blade enables general functions as well. Skinning knives are designed with spanning blades that help in skinning large animals.
Manufacturers have made gut-hook knives with a hook on the main surface ensuring easy cut of the abdomen. One demerit of such a knife is that the hook requires frequent sharpening. This disadvantage is overcome by the introduction of a separate hooked blade along with the hunting blades. This blade is replaceable and needn't be sharpened occasionally.
Beautiful and appealing knife handles made of stainless steel, aluminum leather, wood, and even deer horn and bone are available. Handles are provided with finger grooves for easy grip and lanyard opening. In case of folding knives, handles have thump button and frame lock.
Sharpening frequently is necessary to maintain a good edge for your knife. Electric-powered as well as stone sharpening systems are available. Knife cleaners and rust removals assure excellent care and protection.

Tool Tin
What would be an appropriate answer to this history question?
suppose the people of an early civilization used tin to mix with copper to make bronze for tools and weapons. if they used up all the tin in their area, how might they adapt?
Trade for it with a neighboring culture.
That's how most ancient civilizations got by, and is the basis for any real economy.
