1. Is your vehicle a BMW 3 Series (E36) Coupe or Sedan
manufactured from 1992 to 1999 – a BMW 3 Series (E46)
Coupe or Sedan manufactured from 1999 to 2002 – a
BMW 5 Series (E39) manufactured from 1996 to 2002 – or
a BMW MINI manufactured from 2001?
YES NO
Proper harness belt geometry requires that seat belt
anchor points be located within narrowly defined areas.
Therefore SCHROTH harnessbelts may only be installed
in SCHROTH approved vehicles for which proper
anchorage location and belt geometry has been
determined to exist.
2. Is your vehicle a BMW 3 Series (E36) Convertible
manufactured from 1992 to 1999 OR a BMW 3 Series
(E46) Convertible manufactured from 1999 to 2002?
YES NO
Anchorage locations for BMW E36 & E46 3 Series
Convertibles differ from those of the Coupe and Sedan
models. The Schroth BMW Rallye 4 Harnessbelts are not
approved for use in convertible models due to the
different mounting points provided from the factory.
Please refer to the standard Schroth Certified Vehicle
Reference List for the proper application for these
models.
3. Have you maintained your original equipment factory
provided seats and factory harness mounting points?
YES NO
These belts are only approved for use in the designated
BMW model in conjunction with the factory provided seat
and factory provided DOT mounting points. This belt must
not be used if either the seat and/or the factory mounting
locations or mounting hardware have been changed or
modified in any way.
4. Do you have a left belt for the driver’s side and/or a right
belt for the passenger’s side? (See illustrations on page 5.)
YES NO
Left and right belts are not interchangeable! Installation of
harness belts on wrong side of vehicle can cause severe
head injury or death during rebound phase of frontal
collision! Make sure black asm-cartridge is on the
inboard shoulder strap, see illustration on page 6.
If your answer to any of these 4 questions is [NO], do not
install the SCHROTH harnessbelt system.
If you have answered ALL questions with [YES], you may
install the SCHROTH harnessbelt system in your car.
Please remember that installation procedures will require
you to perform a variety of operations requiring familiarity
with tools and mechanical procedures. If you have any
doubt about your ability to properly install the SCHROTH
asm harnessbelt system, take this manual and all parts
supplied to a competent mechanic for installation.
Please follow these instructions carefully while installing
and before using the belt! Failure to follow instructions
can not only damage and reduce the performance of the
system, but may also result in the denial of warranty
claims.
• SCHROTH asm harnessbelts are designed to be installed
in addition to the stock restraint systems. Always heed
Country/State laws governing the use of seat belts.
Be sure that the tail strap of the harness belt is not inter-
fered with or misdirected by cargo or by folding rear seat.
