As promised.
Are these VAC mounts still available? It looks like they have 2 or 3 holes for 6pt lap belt and 3pt belts. The ones the offer now only have 1 hole.
Not sure. Sold my M4.

I have the GTS seats in my M4 comp pack. It's a summercar but they work fine. The only flaw is when you are a bit wide at your back you need a proper lumbar support to keep your back straight. That is not a big problem as the back of the seat is fixed with cardboard and you can remove them and make your own lumbar support.

+1 these are the best dual purpose seats money can buy, the 3 pt. seat belt option is amazing, feels very secure without being too tight, feels very safe

Albeit they're in an E92 but have sparco qrt performance seats, bk on OEM power sliders. Super comfortable, snug, and the leather is👍🏼 .

I'm 5,10 160lbs.

I’m using Sparco evo II seats directly bolted in (no sliders) my track car, FWIW.

You used VAC Floor mounts, side mounts, and sliders? Coded out the seat belt warning for driver/passenger?
