I thought about the covers, but for $800 they aren't that comfortable LOL

Mark (6LITEREATER) also offers "race" style seats, which I like more. I'm planning on picking up a set of them because I just (5 minutes ago) put a big hole in my driver side seat because my dremel thought it'd be funny to turn on randomly.
Damn, that pissed me off.

i have some Bomz racing seats in mine. somewhere between 20-30 lbs each. got them for around $320 shipped for both, and reused the factory seat brackets after modifying them to fit. only thing left to do is tighten down the LG Harness bar and then install the cam-lock 4-pt harnesses i have.
does the driver at least get a milk crate to sit on?

I like the "race" style seats better too. When do you plan on ordering them? I think I might get them in the black swede

You guys post pics when you get some. I plan on getting some too, either Procar Sportsman or these race style above for my 00 SS. I just dont want to monkey with "adjusting mounting brackets" if you know what I mean. Just bolt and go.

Nope it seems that i have looked everywhere, and cannot find one.
that would be nice
... I know i would buy one, and I have seen in some other threads where other people are looking for one too.
I would just want some thing to use my harnesses until i put a roll bar in my car.

There's definitely a demand for a reproduction of the G2 /LG Motorsports style harness bar. I believe another sponsor tried to make one with 4 mounting points and it looked horrible. The simplicity of the G2 bar sells itself. Just make sure to get the bar at the right level, and just use the rear seat belt mounting brackets. They're very strong.

those Forza seats are what i have been looking into they are like 225 a piece and weigh like 11 lb or maybe it was 17lb either way light. i dont think they make seat brackets for grand prixs though. they also look pretty comfortable compared to lots of lightweights.

it took me over 3 months before i got my hands on the one that in the pic posted above (post #7). a member here PM'd me a link to an f-body autocross website, so i registered and bought the thing. looks great in the car, but before its all said and done, i will get the thing repowder coated.
last month there was a guy selling his who is a member of tech and ls1.com, and that thing sold in mere hours...
i guess since i dont have a job, if i could find a way to reporduce the harness bar i would, to get some money in my pocket...

only problem i had with install was getting the front bolts secured to the seat belt mounting brackets. the angle of the bar makes it had to get even a combination wrench on the thing to tighten down. once i tear into the car to redo the interior and paint the car, i will address that issue. right now, only over really hard bumps does the bar rattle. i do have 4-pt cam-lock harnesses, but i have not put them in at this time. they will be topped off with some pontic logo'ed harness pads which i have as well...
