    Ok. When ever you do autocrossing, and you're buckling in, move your seat back about 6 inches before you buckle in.

    When you're buckling in, snap the belt so it locks in tension and buckle it in. When you buckle it in, keep holding it in tension and move your seat back into position. If you did it correctly you'll have a very tight belt

    Schroth quick-fit FTW. (for autocross use at least)

    I have a set of old Sparco Montecarlos from like 1993. I got a smoking deal on them, which is good because they wouldn't fit me very well if I wasn't such a skinny little dude. Sparco sliders and custom mounts from Wedge Engineering.

    So I'm thinking about Sparco Sprint V seats and sliders and schroth quick fit. Should weight about 33lbs with the mounts and sliders. Any thoughts?

    Pics for thoughts. I like the sound of it though.

    If you're co-driving then I can understand the sliders. If not maybe consider not doing sliders? (weight and more important height savings)

    I say, if someone is 'borrowing' your car they should have to adjust to your position vs take your seat out of adjustment. I'm just picky about that stuff (hence, my wheel alignment discovery .

    Hmm, they look a little uncomfortable, but functional. Would they even be that heavy with the mounts and sliders. The seats are 18.7lbs each, sliders are like 1lb, and mounts can't be too heavy? I'd guess about 25lbs but then again I don't know. I like the Fighter's looks, but they're more expensive. Quick fit's are the way to go for harnesses. Let us know what you decide on
