    Has anyone thought of putting g6 gtp or gxp seats in a grand prix with 5 pt harnesses? A friend of mine was talking about it but I couldnt really put my opinion on it because I never saw this done. Thanks

    5 point harness is stupid and dangerous unless you have a full cage.

    Entertaining this idea... why?

    I ask why, simply, because you are talking about putting in a completely different body style and platform style set of seats that don't even come with a factory 5 point harness setup. They have to be modded so why not just mod the GP seats or get a actual set of racing seats and a proper 5 point harness if that is the look you want. Not that it is needed, the standard 3 point seat belt is more than sufficient for anything the Grand Prix is capable of, unless you plan to do a full tear down and completely re-build the car from the ground up like ZZP did their 8 sec 1/4 mile record holder.

    My thoughts.. Those seats ****ing suck. My mom has an 06 Malibu Ltz and the seats are more worthless than the 97-03 gp seats. It's like sitting on a wooden chair.

    5 point harnesses aren't street legal anyways
    Does removing the spare count as weight reduction?
