what kind of 4 point harness
well my tenzo rally seats are here, my brackets and sliders are on there way also. So now i want some really good kind 4 point harnesses, i saw that fly had Schroth. And Tenzo doesn't make harnesses. My car is blue, and the interior scheme is gray and black. I thought about going JDM and gettin Takata, but then i say the price tag of 400.00 so that changed my mind quick. Just what does everybody think i should get .... any kind of feedback is welcome

Well, do you want to stay street legal or not? That is the first decision you need to make. The only street legal/DOT approved harnesses that I know of are Schroth.

Rep Power: 414 Schroth is tested by the DOT and has passed their standards. A lot of BMW's carry Schroth belts. I guess it's a german thing.
I dunno if you will get ticketed, but I'm not taking any chances. Also, this way, I know that these harnesses have been tested and are safe. I got pulled by a cop last week and he didn't say anything about my harnesses.

Rep Power: 425 I guess I don't see the point in driving around on the street in a harness, but whatever....
The DOT standards are crap compared to some of the other certifications out there. The real problem with them is that if you're in an accident, they have to cut you out, and theres not just 1 strap to cut, theres 4.
Most of the belts are FIA approved, which needless to say, is a lot stricter than the DOT, it just so happens than they didn't deem it necessary to get street approval for racing belts.
I've got an OMP 3 point in my car, but I use it just for autocrossing.
