Its a good read indeed and I agree with that info. However, my car will never see a race. So I feel 4 points are good enough. Plus, I'm sure your pelvis can withstand 5000 lbs. But i doubt my genitals can. If yours can you give a whole new meaning to ***** of steel.

you can just use 6pt, and sit on the anti subs. but without a roll bar, just stick with the stock seat belts...

I could use a harness bar to mount the harness, or are you talking about something different?

Rather than resurrect a seven-year old thread, it's better to start a new thread with your question. Outside that, if you have a ZR (convertible) you're better off finding a local upholstery shop to recover your stock seats. It'll save a lot of time and effort reusing your original OEM seats as long as they're not too badly damaged.

My bad idk how to or if I can make a post. I was quoted 740 plus cost of leather .... so maybe just a different seat? But there all racing that need a harness style seat belt and obviously the 2004 comes with the female end of the buckle attached to the seat itself

It's not hard to post- simply go to the appropriate section. In your case, it could be the "exterior and interior" or "maintenance and repair" sections and look for the "post new thread" button. As for your seat, get at least three estimates and compare the cost of leather vs. synthetic materials. You've also got the option of DIYing the seat cover itself, there's plenty of threads on here about different seat products on the market. SEARCH and you'll find multiple threads.
