How do dates affect value of harnesses and seats?

I have a set of hardly used harnesses and racing seats but they have been sitting in a car undriven. I'm guessing they are from 2008ish. Can I still sell these? Harnesses are 5pt G-force cam locks and seats are cobra imola 2's.

For harnesses... Once they are past racing certification age, value plunges. I see near mint sets sell for well under 50$. I have a set that was given to me. I use it for hpde.

Seats... I suspect a similar pattern of value loss, but the value hit is much less than for belts as there tends to be a larger market willing to scoop them up. Heck, try buying a vintage set of racing recaros...

Depends on the date I suppose...I've heard stories of a good date ruining some seats, but usually it's the back seat.

In a 911 you'd have to have a fetish for double amputee dwarfs.

Backseat? !?!? In a 911?!?! You're either good or a contortionist

Dueler I was driving believe it or not. A lot of alcohol was involved. She was quite determined...
