    As someone who sells harnesses of all makes and models, I will tell you there is a huge difference in quality between g-force (lower end) and schroth (higher end) belts. I have used Gforce, RCA, Sabelt etc in the past and the biggest difference you get for the price is the buckle and release mechanism quality. The schroth belts have been my favorite and for the past two cars I've raced I bought the pull up profi 2 Hans 6pts. The Hans belts are the safest model out there cause they won't slide off the Hans due to the belt being narrower at the shoulders. The buckles are smooth and the adjustment brackets are easy to loosen and tighten. So it all depends on how nice you want to go but there definitely is a difference in quality. Almost all schroth belts are FIA 5 yr belts too, which is why they are more. Most of the cheaper belts are SFI 2 yr. the Gforce is the only exception at $155 for FIA. But in my opinion the schroth Hans belts are a better harness.
