I'm looking for a replacement for my Schroth Formula with the sub-straps that thread through the lap belt and loop over the shoulder straps. Has anyone tried the T-bar sub-straps made by Schroth, and, if so, any issue with passing through the Tillett hole for that purpose or otherwise? Given the T-bar moves the straps away from center toward the thighs it seems like it might be a nice blend of comfort and convenience.

I have the track day roll bar from my 2019 SV available having just swapped it for a cage. Caterham is selling these ex VAT for about $600, plus shipping and tariffs. I'll sell for $300, pick up only. I'm located roughly 20 miles northeast of Seattle.

Does anyone have first-hand knowledge of the rigidity of the carbon kevlar seat relative to the GRP/carbon seat that they can share?

And now @BruceBe has added a comment on BaT. This community is truly special. If for some reason the car doesn't sell then I'll just tuck it away for now. I was hoping to create space for something new, but that too can wait. I will, however, still have a trailer for sale. It fits the S3 chassis perfectly, and I've also used it for my SV but find getting in and out tight at the ramp door opening so am going to go a little wider, probably a 7.5'. The trailer has been used locally only to haul motorcycles and Caterham's. The L-track runs down the one wall to accommodate stowing bikes at an angle to maximize the number that can be fit. I'll update with a price assuming no BaT sale, so this is just a head's up in case someone is looking for a trailer.

My imagination is going wild trying to decipher these "knuckle" messages.

@demoray and @Vovchandr, thanks for taking the time to respond. So far the comments and questions have been more than reasonable so easy to respond to, and @Kitcat and the original owner, Mark McClure have both jumped in to help.

Lucky buyer, that is a really nice CSR!

Oh boy, point well taken @theDreamer. That auction went off the rails early in a completely avoidable fashion. I'd like to think that my nature is one that would avoid such silliness, but will be mindful that even an innocent misstep can get things moving in the wrong direction.

Thanks @pethier, appreciate the gut check.

Sage advice, thanks @wdb!

This is my first time selling on BaT, so if you happen to look at the auction and have any thoughts on how I might improve please do share. The good folks at BaT re-wrote the ad I prepared in an awkward sort of way, and short of correcting factual errors I'm living with what they think is best. However, I do have control over how I respond to questions and comments.

This 7 is now live on Bring a Trailer: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2003-caterham-super-seven/

I'm using Bring a Trailer to sell my car, trailer, and other items to make a track-ready package. Per BaT's rules, if you have any interest please look to BaT instead of inquiring through USA7's. I will reply here with a link to the BaT ad once it goes live. For those of you with history of the car or just feel like participating, I would be very grateful if you would comment in the BaT ad with whatever you feel is appropriate. Thanks! Greg

Wing (side view) mirrors are an entirely different rabbit hole. I have mine mounted on the windscreen stanchion, and they have to be in the top screw position to see (most) of the passenger side mirror as the cage tubing gets in the way. And if you mount to the cage then the doors aren't an option, caveat being I'm experimenting with a spot mirror that is small enough not to intrude even though it is mounted inboard. I'm attaching a couple of pictures to give you an idea what I've been trying.
