I have the RSS 930 bar.
Fits great, powder coat is flawless, and I got fantastic customer service from the guys at RSS.
On the note of sliding seats back, I am 5'11" and when I ride shotgun, I still have several inches before seat back hits bar. You'd have to be driving some lanky ****** around for that to matter.

(Below assumes the new roll bar is for your new GTS)
I'm not sure of there is a rear seat delete option for the GTS, but if so and you order it...warning:
I recently installed 2 GMG bars in two '10 RS cars....and I can tell you that one of the RS cars for some reason had industrial strength plastic plugs in the threaded mounting points. I seriously pray that you never have to try to get those out - it took HOURS. These were not your ordinary plastic plugs - they were never meant to come out as determined by the profanity and aggravation experienced.
The other RS did not have the plugs in the threads and was a breeze. Go figure.

Between trying to make the correct decesion on a roll bar and track wheels...I'm going crazy....LOL

Just priced out the rear section on carenwal, 2900 for the rear section. Painted black. If you're looking into a GMG RSR bar, its worth the extra couple hundred for OEM, but then there is the welding the plates to the chassis, I don't know how much people are paying for installation of these things.

I'm running the RSS 928 bar (shock towers and through the floor rather than seatbelt mounts). I can't say enough good things about it, from build quality to belt mount points to ability to mount a camera in the center. I can move both driver and passenger seats all the way back (no tilt on buckets for me). I'd do it again in a heartbeat, very good product.
