Schroth or Sabelt?

I'm about to jump in on seats and harnesses for car. Question is about which 6 point harness setup to go with -- Schroth or Sabelt?

Not to stray form the question at hand. But what are you going to be going about the airbag situation. I believe there is a sensor in the factory seat and was always curious on how that would work with aftermarket seats.

You code out the SRS errors that come from installing aftermarket seats.

I prefer the Schroth HANS belts over the Sabelt stuff. HMS is the US distributor and it's really easy to get replacement components as you need them. Going with a harness bar or are you doing the Quick Fit Pro's?

Yes, going to code out the error.

Thx I always preferred Schroth myself.

Going with a custom half cage.

I can vouch for Schroth and HMS. They custom built the lap belts to fit my buckets in my Porsche. I’m planning on reusing them when I put the new Sparco in my M4.

Great setup and great support from HMS
