I have Simpson in the GT350 clone, and a mixture of Simpson and Deist in the
Cobra. Hall Pantera sells a complete five-point harness system (belts,
mounting hardware, and the bar across the back) using Deist belts and that's what I
have in my Pantera.
The standard is three-inch lap belts; I have three-inch shoulder harnesses in
the Cobra and GT350 and two-inch in the Pantera. Two-inch belts are much
more comfortable for regular use, but they have a smaller surface area (33%
smaller) which means that the force transmitted to your body in the event of a
crash will be more localized, i.e. greater potential for bruising etc.
