My plan would be to swap in a driver's side one-piece seat at some point before/after each track event. It sounds painful I know but I dont do that many events per year and it would only be one side (mostly solo now).
This EAS install video makes it look fairly easy also, LINK |

I've emailed them to confirm though, will let you know.

Edit: One example here: LINK
Or if I could just souce an M4 GTS seat, M4 GTS Recaro Profi |

driver and passenger side have different hardware so I have different solutions for this to work.

So I talked with HMS and unfortunately they do not recommend this configuration. One thing they mentioned was that they sled test the particular OEM seats from each car they approve for use with the QFP's and since they don't do the same test with racing seats, they don't know how they would hold up. They instead recommended holding off and getting either a harness bar or half-cage when I transition to racing seats. Bummer but good to know before I started ordering parts! I just need to remind myself to be patient, half-cage plans aren't too far away.
