I started with Crow from DRM they re-web it for 40 bucks where Simpson doesn't do it for any price. HardbarUSA.com sell Team Tech which is real nice. I got the sternum strap also added when I sent it for rewebbing.

I picked up a TeamTech JetPilot from Hardbar. Very comfy. Very nice. And it works with the stock seats. It's really comfy compared to my old Simpson 5-pt.

I'm using G-FORCE 6pt harnesses with my Brey-Krause harness bar (w/ lap belt option). Working nicely for me.

I started out with a Crow, just replaced it with a Scroth built Sparco Harness. Haven't used the Sparco yet, but the main reason I got it was for extra room between the sub straps

Look at several harness systems. Also take into consideration the seat you are using, do you use a HANS, and what are your mounting points?

YOur seat will determain if you need a 5 or 6 point ( two sub belts ).

Look at:
pull up lap belts, not pull down.
cam look over latch and link
chest strap

I've got a TeamTech RamPac. Its a one part package that comes with lots of padding and a sternum strap. Very comfortable, more comfortable than a GeForce or Simpson setup I've ridden in. You can get custom color combinations as well (I did). CDOC.com stocks some colors for less than MSRP.

TeamTech with a camlock. My car is my daily driver, and I where it all the time.

I'm glad to see another person who uses their harness in their daily driver. My story's a bit different though because what I have in my daily driver is the 4 pt Schroth clip in for a BMW that I put in for the few high speed autox's I did with it, so it was an easy install and a very easy switch back and forth between that and the stock 3 pt. I just really find the 4pt Schroth so much more comfy!! No belt sawing my neck! I'm sure it looks a bit posey though!

I'm sure it would a redesign nighmare for car manufacterers, but would having a 4pt provide more driver/passenger safety?

Sabelt 6-point harness. Got it from Driving Impressions. I really love the cam locking mechanism. Works very well, good product IMHO.

guys,

thanks for all the good information and helpful suggestions. I've finally decided on Corbeau 3" 5 points. These are in conjunction with A4's from Corbeau as well.
