Yes, but it's not safe.

Why is it not safe? What is the problem with using aftermarket harnesses on the stock ep seats? I was also thinking about doing this.

I wouldn't do it, because my shoulders are a lot wider than the single hole in the stock seatback.

Harness holes are spaced about shoulder-width apart on racing seats because that's where the straps work the best. Imagine pulling VERY HARD (I mean with a thousand pounds of force) on a V-shaped neck/shoulder strap with your own neck in it.

I've never seen a true racing seat with just one narrow hole in the back.

yeah, search under recaro harness and it should come up, it worked but it was a bit of a home made look.. I think you have to bolt it behind the back of the rear seats by flipping down the back seats and bolting it under the carpet. Just check the thread.
