Racing seat fitment (harness slot height)?
How should the harness slots for the shoulders line up? Sitting down in an upright driving position the top of my shoulders are at 26" (I'm 6'7"). I was looking at the Cobra Suzuka GT, but it lists the bottom of the shoulder slot at 16.8". Even if the slot is 4"-6" high, thats nowhere near where my shoulders are. Any other freakishly tall people in here with some advice? I don't really NEED racing seats so if I can't find anything it's not a huge deal, but I've always wanted a set so if I can find some that actually fit that would be awesome!

Anyone whos had a chance to sit in any of these seats care to chime in? Right now my two top choices are the Sparco EVO 2 Plus and Cobra Suzuka GT. I have no way of trying any of these seats locally so I'm going to have to do as much research as possible, pick the best one I can find, and cross my fingers that it actually fits.
I'm 6'7", 230 lb with a 35" waist if that helps at all.

I just got off the phone with Chad, the owner of Subesports and he recommended the Cobra Suzuka GT. He said it comes in a "nordic" model which looks like it would work really well for me. He even took the time to go pull one out and take some measurements for me. Looks like a go as long as it will fit in the car.
