Q: My Helmet came pre-drilled, can I use the pre-drilled hole?
A: Simpson helmets will be the correct location. If your helmet is not a Simpson check with your helmet
manufacturer to confi rm the location.
Q: Do I need special seat belts to work with your devices?
A: No, our devices work with 2 or 3 inch seat belts, Latch and Link or Cam Lock.
Q: Do I need to replace my head restraint if I am involved in a wreck?
A: Your Simpson Head Restraint device is built to sustain the most violent of wrecks. However, in the event
of a hard wreck, you should send your restraint to us for proper inspection by a Simpson Safety Specialist.
We may recommend replacing the helmet tethers. While the chances of the device being unharmed are great,
it is not worth taking a chance.
Q: Can two people of different sizes share the same device?
A: Yes, we have a chest extender that will plug into the chest strap to give more length in the chest.
Q: Is my device adjusted wrong if I can touch my chin to my chest?
A: No, with your device adjusted correctly you should be able to rotate you head enough for your chin to
touch your chest.
Q: I am having trouble turning my head even after adjustments, what should I do?
A: Call you Simpson Safety Specialist; your setup may require an EZ Slide System.
Q: When I measure my helmet for the anchors hard foam in the way on the inside, what should I do?
A: Very gently use a large fl at screw driver or small pry bar to wedge between the liner and the shell.
This liner is not glued into the helmet, but use caution not to compromise the shell or the liner. Then
simply slide the nut washer into place. DO NOT DRILL THROUGH OR COMPROMISE THIS FOAM LINER.
Q: I have a Hybrid and it feels like it pushes me forward out of the seat. What can I do?
A: You can order the optional molded seat pad that can be cut, trimmed, shaved or ground to be
whatever shape you need to be comfortable.
Q: My child is just getting started racing, will I have to purchase another device as they grow?
A: Probably not. This will depend on how big they are and how fast they grow. Once the child is at a 28
inch chest, the device that they wear will be able to be re-sized to whatever size they need.
Q: How often should I replace my head restraint?
A: Each Sanctioning body is different. As of 2012 SFI required all SFI 38.1 certifi ed devices to be
inspected every 5 years. For additional information on recertifi cation please check out our web site at
