No idea. But why not go with the Recaro Pole Position which is tired and true?

guessing the shoulder harness belt holes are too low for him, if he is using for track work.

I sat in a bunch of seats including the pole position and found the Imola to be the best fit

just be careful with the Cobra seats. I had a huge issue with them and have their mounting holes not aligned side to side, meaning the seat would be tilted to the right as sitting in it not a front to back thing. I went with the OMP WRC seats if you didn't get a chance to try them. If you haven't been to HMS in Mass, give them a try as they have a lot of seats to try

Yes I was at hms looking at seats. I hadn't heard of issues with the Cobra seats.

It was the suzuka's in particular. Joe ordered in another 2 seats and they were both off as well. Dumb luck they picked up OMP and had a seat inbound for me to look at. I did make 4 trips up to his shop from CT, so it wasn't so happy for me, but they did make it right and Joe is a huge supporter of the sport, so my $'s go to him if he has product. currently lusting over a new lid bucket by Stilo Carbon version. so light and comfy

They are all really nice, only trying to save weight because I were it so often, usually get 2 students at each event I go to, but the difference is almost a set of race rubber. priorities I tell ya.

I dont have much hair left so the weight isn't as important to me. I am impressed with how well it fits and how comfortable it is compared to my G-Force.

Another big thumbs up for the OMP WRC seats. Have you tried them?

I have OMP in the track E46 M3 very affordable compared to Recaro and fit well.

Oh yeah, I added the electronics and a spare tinted shield as well. Why don't other companies offer similar options? We were able to switch padding around and get a great fit.
