Default Who uses or used trans am seats with 5 points?

I was wondering who has this set up since I love how comfortable they are but my main concern is the crotch strap. Did you feel secure enough with it? Was it uncomfortable? Or should I look into having a slot added so then the crotch strap comes through the seat insted of over it? And of course pictures if you have them

yes you'd have to slit the seat and have it stitched back for the 5th point.

Went into the 8's before I got rid of my leather stock seat.
Never cut it up, worked just fine.

I ran mine with the crotch strap over the front of the seat also and it was fine.

I think I might just go over the seat and see how I like it. Or find some sort of belt guide if I do cut a hole so the seat foam doesn't go everywhere
