CG Lock = next best thing to a harness

More secure, sure. I seriously doubt it's safer. I don't think the OEM seats could handle the downward load that the harnesses would put on the seat-back in a crash. The angle from the back of the seat to the rear seating anchor points is too steep. That's why a harness bar is the so important.

Let's not turn this into a "my solution is better than yours" flame war. I simply posted a small review of a product I feel some people will find helpful. Harnesses are excellent when safely installed, and the CG Lock works very well considering how easy it is to install and how cheap it is. Let's leave it at that.
