GT2 folding sport buckets: Is the hole for the sub strap pre-cut at the factory?

When I am doing Porsche events with the GT3RS in Europe, all the cars are equipped with the folding buckets, and even with just the 3-point belt I am quite secured.

There is a reason why Porsche didn't equip their fleet with the 918 buckets even when they have a choice to either for European cars.
Folding buckets are definitely smaller. I am 6’2” 250lbs and fit in the 918 style LWB just fine which tells you all you need to know.
