I think they look great! Blue and red is reminiscent of USMC dress blue, which I wasn't expecting but it's really nice.

Seats are from Sonex, the smoke color. Not yet velcro'd in.

I'd sent Crow the pictures of the seatbelt plans page, and the harness came back to me just fine with about a week from first phone call to installed.

No anti-submarine strap; the lower attach point seemed like it would have to be under the seat.

Alternatively, and if you can accommodate about a 3-4 week lead time, Cerberus (aka Total Parachute Rigging Solutions) still makes seatbelts too.

Their website is: http://WWW.TPRSLLC.COM


I found them on this forum from a 2017 thread; the order sheet has since been updated and is attached.

Looks really good David.

Do you mind sharing the cost?

Harness and all brackets (5/16" holes) 171.85 per
Shoulder pads 23.15 per
shipping 20.55

Paid 410.55 total for these. Yes there's cheaper routes via self-fabrication, but I'd be trading time for money. I started my plane 8 months ago, and I have only one month left before starting grad school so.... I'm very happy with this :)
