If you do not put a bar in to use harnesses I would recommend you look at the HANS sport neck restraint that will work with the standard three point belts that are original equipment . I cannot stress enough the need for some type of neck restraint if you are going to be on the track . The normal HANS will only work with two over the shoulder harnesses connected to either a four, five or six point system but that requires either a roll bar or harness bar and a racing style seat

That is a 997 GT2 seat in my 991.1 GT3 with programmed airbag serial numbers manually to activate them. The seat is a part of the 991.2 GT3 Club Sport Option outside the US, so it should work in the 991.2. For some reason the EU airbag serial numbers will not auto populate in US cars. The trick is finding someone who can manually program the airbag serial numbers into all the BCM units that check the numbers with each other during start up. That is where most people give up. I only found one guy 2 years ago who could do it, took him 20 minutes with a PIWIS and he has since moved to the west coast. They are my favorite seats and worth the hassle.

My setup continues to use the existing seat belts for the street and the 6 pts for the track. The way I stopped the seat belt chime was to buy a blank for when I am on the track. I think I spent about $8.
