G-Force makes reasonably-priced camlocks.

I use the GForce harness (but not the camlock version). I would also recommend checking out this site:

You just need to decide if camlocks are something you need or not. It's not a lot of extra money, but for me it wasn't worth it.

Another vote for G-Force.

Keep your eye on their outlet store. Some really great bargains on harnesses!

I'm selling my G-Force 5point harness, black color, it's a pro-series with polywebbing, camlock, and pull up lap belts. It's been barely used, 2 track days, and 3 autox. I'm converting my FD back to daily driving, so I need something more convenient.

$90 shipped to you, email me if interested "ej13b@yahoo.com"

Another vote for the G-force. Check out, http://www.racerwholesale.com

It, in conjunction with the rest of my safety equpment, let me walk away from a wreck (120 into a guardrail) with out a bruise, scratch, or even a bit of soreness the next day. I like the camlock due to it's simple and easy nature to latch up and speed of unlatching in the event of an emergency. It is also much easier for safety crews to get you out of you car if you are unable to do so yourself. I would spend the extra money on it IMO.
