I was recommended NOT to do that by Schroth.
The HANS device I have (bought earlier this year) is designed to be used with 2" shoulder belts. Using 3" increases the chance of the belts slipping off of the HANS, leading to loss of tension and loss of effectiveness of the belts.
When I asked why the HANS wasn't made to fit the 3" belts, it was because it would result in two broken clavicals in the event of an impact. Do you fancy losing the use of both arms, and then trying to get out of the car?
In the event of an accident John, and it goes wrong, would you say the same?
Rob.
