New GT2 seats... Need advice on harnesses

Thanks to Suncoast, and a great DIY post, this was one of the easiest modifications I have done yet... GMG is shipping the WC roll bar this Friday - and will install later this month (I know the seats have to come back out - but I am too impatient to wait )
Now I just need some help picking out the harnesses - Factory GT3 6-point, Schroth GT3 6-point, or Simpson? Which ones works and fits the best with these seats? I have the Brey-Krause anti sub bar to put on when the harnesses arrive.

(If you look closely at the first pic, you will see fellow 6-Speed member "mikymu" DIY post "Modified GT3 RS Club Sports Conversion" pulled up on the monitor - which was extremely helpful for this mod!)

Scroth belts are not cheap..don't know how they compare to factory but I would think they would be cheaper...there are some other alternatives out there that are as good as Simpson from G-force, RCI and Impact...I prefer the Scroth as they fit just right and are easy to install...lets hear from others

I can't tell you anything about the harnesses, but those seats look great!

I don't have harnesses but I know Schroth is a well known brand. I once read a thread about harnesses and one guy said the brand he had was so abrasive that they rubbed his shoulders raw. Look into this before buying.
