    If you are just autocrossing, then a four point harness should be OK. However, if you are doing any kind of racing where there is a higher risk of a crash, then I would get at least a 5 point harness.

    Also, make sure that the harness that you are buying is properly certified. You don't want to skimp on something that could be saving your life.

    well it really wouldnt be for autocross or anything. 1 would be for drifting and 1 would be for pretty much daily use.

    The first BY FAR, DO NOT GET SOME CHEAP LITTLE SKINNY BELTS.

    The crotch strap aka submarine belt helps A LOT and makes the harness work properly, either way, without a roll cage or bar or SOMETHING you are taking risks.

    Ok good, and do the wrap around mounting, do not bolt them in.

    They FEEL good, when racing lol, on the street you will get sick of strapping in very quickly, plus the lack of movement, I say just leave the stock belts, mount the harness, and wear it when on spirited drives and such.
