Both harnesses installed but only one seat due to bracket issues. I ordered a set of 245/40-17 (max. width allowed in STX) Bridgestone RE-01r's tonight for my next event. Now I've got to get my tube/rod bender set up so I can make me a new rear bar.

Todd,
yeah, join the "installing race seats in an SVX is a pain" club



I ended up just using the piece of SS plate, as the rectangular tubing spaced the seat up too far (fine in normal driving -- horrible when wearing a helmet )

3/4" OD 4130 works nicely for the rear bar



kinda makes the stock bar look wimpy, doesn't it
