Default Racing seat setup?

Does anyone know how this is setup? Im very new at this, I love how this looks and always wanted to have it done.
If anyone could explain that would be great! and roughly how much it would cost?

i dont get what you are asking

but ill give it a shot

buy a (legitimate, please) aftermarket racing seat. i dont believe most of those seats will 'bolt right in.' thus, they will require you to buy and 'aftermarket rail' (what the seat bolts to.)

here is an example of A stock rail


and an aftermarket rail

You would need seats, brackets, sliders and floor brackets. This is all pretty easy to find online if you search around. Status Racing sponsored me, they provide Planted floor brackets, OPT sliders, and Status seat brackets. Check my build thread or my thread on the seats. Be aware of seat sizing too; bucket seats like mine are only made for people with a 32-34" waist.

It's also recommended to use a harness bar for optimal harness positioning about the level of your shoulders. You can also use the child restraint anchors on the top rear deck to latch the harnesses down, but it surely looks werid, plus you'd gotta purchase a harness extension for each strap.
