OMPs are only 1200 and are the perfect fit.
OMP / my arse - Cinderella / slipper = same same.

Just a bit worried about Aus / US / Jap models not being the same resistor and having a few airbags go off in the car
Will get the auto sparky onto it I think.

I think a CG Lock is well worth investigating before dropping some big money on a seat and harness.....

http://www.cg-lock.com/

It basically stops your seatbelt pulling back through the lap section meaning you can pull it tight and pin your hips to the seat. It wont stop your top half moving around but at least you can forget about bracing a leg against the centre console or door.

These may work ok with a half decent seat but the XT seats are crap. The support that is offered is quickly squashed by my 95kg fat ass plus the top half of the body is just as important. My head is just about hanging out the window on some right handers...

out of interest does removing one seat stop the other airbags working? I intend to change the drivers seat out for track days etc and can live with the light being on.

As per usual I've heard conflicting stories but you would hope that Subaru wouldn't design it this way...
I'm off to see Blair from Ranger Auto Electrics who has a good review from some guys here on the forum tomorrow so we will have to wait and see.
