Large shoulder-harness slots accommodate a variety of driver sizes and harness configurations, while five-point belt openings and HANS® compatibility provide modern harness integration. The striking BMW M‑Rain fabric gives the seat a unique, motorsport-inspired aesthetic that stands out while retaining full race-grade functionality.
