Well, what don't you see? To remove a stock seatbelt, It's merely a tap on a
button.  My harnesses have the buckle in the center but I have to loosen it
in 4 places before I can get out, even after unbuckling.

Yeah, when I put a seatbelt on, I think to myself "I'm gonna get in an
accident."  Why else would you wear a seatbelt?  I was in a head on
collision (not in the rocco) and I was going 50 and the other car 20mph.  No
seatbelt, the airbag didn't go off, but I saw it coming and braced myself
(stiffened those arms up on the wheel) and I came out just fine.  Nobody was
hurt.  I'm NOT IN ANYWAY putting down seatbelts, just justifying why I don't
use them.

You're in the will, man.
