OpenWheeler Four Point Harness VR Add-on - Racing & Flight Cockpit

Our review of the OpenWheeler Four Point Harness VR Add-on finds it is best for sim racers and flight sim pilots who want a simple, robust restraint to increase immersion and seat security. The biggest reason to buy is that it installs with the supplied hardware on OpenWheeler cockpits and gives a convincing, game-focused hold with a fast camlock release. This is a review of an accessory designed for simulation and offroad use only, not for street legal vehicles, and it performs exactly as intended: sturdy straps, comfortable pads, and a secure quick-release camlock.

Key Features

• 2 in webbing: Thick 2 in straps provide secure load distribution across torso and hips for a more planted feeling in cornering and heavy maneuvers.
• Camlock buckle: The high quality camlock mechanism offers a quick-release action that speeds entry and exit and supports conversion to a 5 point layout.
• Included hardware: Mounting hardware and tools are supplied for OpenWheeler cockpits so setup is straightforward and does not require extra purchases.
• Comfort pads: Strap pads reduce pressure on the shoulders during long sessions, improving comfort without sacrificing hold.
• Multi-color options: Available in multiple colors including blue, red and black so users can match their cockpit or personalize their rig.

Who It's For

This harness is aimed at PC sim racers, VR flight sim enthusiasts and offroad simulator users who have an OpenWheeler cockpit or a seat with accessible anchor points in the back. It appeals to anyone who wants a quick-release, robust restraint to increase immersion and the sensation of being strapped in during aggressive virtual driving or flying.

It is not for use in real road vehicles, and buyers who need certified automotive crash protection or FIA homologation should look elsewhere. Also, those without back-of-seat anchor points may need to adapt or choose a harness designed for their specific frame.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid build quality and secure feel thanks to the 2 in straps and camlock buckle.
• Easy setup on OpenWheeler cockpits with supplied mounting hardware and tools.
• Enhances immersion in VR and sim sessions by keeping the driver/pilot planted in the seat.

Cons

• Not suitable for use in street legal vehicles, which limits real-world utility.
• Adapters or custom anchoring may be required to fit non-OpenWheeler seats.

Specifications

Our Verdict

The OpenWheeler Four Point Harness VR Add-on is a sensible, good-value upgrade for sim and VR cockpit builders who want a reliable, immersive restraint with fast camlock release. It is especially worthwhile for OpenWheeler owners since mounting hardware is included, but anyone with secure seat anchor points can adapt it. Avoid it if you need road-legal safety certification.
