I definitely miss it, but I don't regret it. The biggest thing I miss is the power, but hopefully the Viper will be there soon. I did like the looks it got blower screaming though.

Trust,

I noticed you looped the pass seat belt through the harness slot, I doubt you sat there much but, was pretty much like stock or did the seat belt seem kinda high?

Yea, it rode kinda high, I ended up doing it on both the pass and driver side. Saved the cage and seat from getting rubbed and worn by the seat belt. It was a lot better after I did it and took the harness out.
