Painted Magma red to match the car and installed by www.gabrielsportscar.com
 
Looks great! Going to buy one of these for my car soon too.

Install was pretty straight forward?
 
Is the seat pass through wide enough where they arent rubbing into your neck?
 
Would suggest that if you run harnesses, you run a roll bar. With a rollover pushing the roof down, with harnesses your head is held without the ability to move down like with factory belts. You can also cinch the factory belt by moving your seat back, jerking on the belt until it locks, hold it in the locked position, then move the seat forward till it gets really tight. Plus there is a chest strap available that is used in autocross that you can combine with factory belt. This strap does not prevent your head form deflecting down in a rollover, but holds you an additional amount over and above the cinched factory belt.
 
In addition, it is necessary to use a Head Restraint system like a HANS device to prevent basal skull facture should an impact occur. The racing harness will keep your body secured, but your head can move forward if not restrained. This is the reason why all racing orgs mandate Head restraint systems when using 4/5/6 point racing harnesses.

These things are meant to be used together as a system (racing seats, harness bar, roll bar, harnesses, and head restraints). Just a PSA!
