I am looking to find a pair of GT-3 seats (black leather). Where is the best place where I can find them at a reasonable price?

Thanks.

do you need a harness bar to use the shoulder harness through the seat or can you anchor to the back seatbelt attachment points?

Seriously, can you use the regular seat belt with that seat?
Are they comforatable? Are they electric?

No they are not electric.

100% yes you can use the regular seat belts, and many people do.

The GT3 seat is one of the most comfortable racing seat I have been in. Including Sparco and others.

The result of anchoring the harnesses below the level of your shoulders is massive compression of the spinal column in the event of a collision. As your body moves forward, the straps are pulling down at the same time, hence the compression. Very Bad!!!

When they are attached to a harness bar, the straps are anchored level with the shoulders, so that they keep your body torso from moving forward without pulling down on your shoulders and compressing the spine...Many un-informed people have been hurt in this way...just a head's up.
