The CMS cage was relatively straightforward and easy.

The seats? Not so much.

Started with Sparco bases but a couple things bugged me about them. The inboard position to install the T-50 bolt to secure it to the car doesn’t allow for the stock bolt, the bolt is longer then the available space in between the actual seat base and the tab which screws to the car. I’ve seen where some folks drilled out the plate above but I didn’t love that idea. Additionally, there is no where to mount the sub straps for the harnesses and I didn’t particularly want to drill holes in the floor of the car.

I ordered Brey Krause seat bases and the accompanying sub strap mounting bar. Some minor mods still had to take place to the OMP side mounts but it eventually all worked out.

OMP HTE-R (xl on drivers side, regular on PAX side), Schroth 6 point, CMS roll bar, and as mentioned, OMP side brackets and Brey Krause mounts.

I may wind up pulling the drivers side and moving it up slightly after this months trip to Barber, it’s hard to tell just driving around the roads if I have it just right.
Bravo! Well done!... Whats the weight savings on those seats?
