I've tried DAS, RSS, OEM club and GMG. GMG RSR is the ONLY bar that allows the seats to fully go back and provide room for *** seats. EVERYTHING else hit the seats at one point or another.

Why would someone have Porsche optioned *** seats and a roll bar when the *** seats can not accept a harness?

Odd because the RSS bars are designed to have the seats go all the way back...My GT2 Sport buckets are all the way back and I even tilted the driver seat some with some washers on the frame rail...plenty of room.

As for your question, I can not speak for why people do things. For me, I used the *** seats for date nights and driving around town as they are a world of difference when it comes to comfort. For track days, I would simply change the *** seats to recaros. With the right tools, it only took a few minutes.
BTW, your GTS looks like it would be a blast on the track and great for the street.

I had the RSS in a 6 GT3 and it did NOT allow the seats to go all the way back. Perhaps different with the sport buckets. I had the DAS with the sport buckets and again, it did NOT allow the seat to go all the way back. Just because they are "designed" to work that way is not guarantee that it actually does what it claims. I had the club sport with the 997.1 RS OEM seats and the latches got into the bar when I tried to go back with it.

I agree I'd rather has *** or even stock seats for the street, especially for my 6'5" frame but I don't daily drive my GTS so the few times a month the wife and I take it to dinner it's not bad.

I'm talking 997 cars not 996...the OP has a 997 car...so yeah I don't have any experience fitting these bars in a 996 but when I was roll bar shopping the RSS bars seemed to have more room than the others and are very well built and their cost was attractive too.
