Thanks Joe
Yes, I have an FIA 6-point camlock harness. I prefer it was it doesn’t have the single belt through the crotch.

Is that what you ment Steve?

Yes. With the "pull down" waist straps, you tighten the belts by pulling down or away from your body, towards the floor. This can be difficult with a race seat & or cage. The "pull up" waist straps you pull up or in towards your lap.

You're on the list! Note the pull-up is a +$20 in price before the discount. Also confirming 1 set, not a pair.

Just one harness. Passengers can use the cg lock. :)

I did notice the pull up type was $20 more, from the discussion here that sounds like the way to go though.

I noticed that only the SFI belts are pull up...... or am I missing something.

I do need a harness, but I was hoping to match what I already have.

So... on the fence if I want to change this up. You make some good arguments for SFI > FIA.
