Frequently Asked Questions
Is the OMP OMPHA0-0831-A01-071 RT Carbon seat FIA approved for competition?Yes. The OMPHA0-0831-A01-071 carries full FIA 8855-1999 homologation, making it legal for use in a wide range of sanctioned motorsport disciplines including rally, circuit racing, and club-level events that require FIA-certified seating.
What is the weight of the OMP RT Carbon seat?The RT Carbon weighs 9.5 kg (15.43 lbs). The carbon fiber shell keeps mass low without compromising structural integrity or FIA certification requirements, even with the addition of full leather trim.
What mounting type does the OMP RT Carbon use?The seat uses a side mount Type W configuration with a 290mm bolt spacing. OMP and compatible third-party side mount brackets are required and sold separately. Always verify bracket compatibility with your specific chassis before ordering.
Does the OMP OMPHA0-0831-A01-071 support HANS device use?Yes. The shoulder and harness opening design of the RT Carbon is fully compatible with HANS (Head and Neck Support) devices, which are required in many FIA-regulated motorsport categories.
What harness configurations work with the OMP RT Carbon seat?The seat features five harness slot openings that accommodate 4-point, 5-point, and 6-point harness systems. Confirm harness throat width compatibility with your specific belt system before purchase.
How wide is the OMP RT Carbon seat?The RT Carbon measures 570mm in width at the seat shell, making it suitable for a broad range of driver builds. Refer to OMP sizing guidelines and compare against your hip measurement to confirm the best fit before ordering.
Can the OMP RT Carbon be used as a daily driver seat?While the RT Carbon is designed and certified for motorsport competition, some enthusiasts use FIA seats in dedicated track cars that also see limited street use. Comfort for extended daily driving may be limited by the fixed-back design. Consult local regulations regarding the use of competition seats on public roads.
What is the difference between the OMP RT Carbon Leather and other OMP carbon seats?The RT Carbon distinguishes itself with its full premium leather lining, delivering a more refined finish than fabric-lined alternatives like the HTE-R or HTE-EVO. The 570mm width and 850mm height place it in a mid-size competition shell profile, making it well-suited for average to athletic driver builds.
Are mounting brackets included with the OMP OMPHA0-0831-A01-071?No. Side mount brackets are not included and must be purchased separately. OMP offers a wide range of vehicle-specific and universal side mount brackets compatible with the Type W 290mm bolt pattern used on this seat.
Installation Notes
- Remove the factory seat by unbolting the four floor mounting points and disconnecting any seat sensor or airbag wiring harnesses. Disable the airbag system per your vehicle service manual before disconnecting any connectors.
- Select OMP Type W side mount brackets with 290mm bolt spacing for your chassis, or use a universal adapter plate.
- Attach the side mount brackets to the seat shell using the provided hardware, torquing to OMP specifications.
- Position the bracket-and-seat assembly on the floor rails and check seat position before final tightening.
- Install a compatible FIA-certified harness through the appropriate harness slots, routing shoulder belts through upper openings and lap belts through lower slots.
- Perform a final check of all bolts, confirm the seat does not shift under load, and verify harness routing is free of pinch points before driving.
