I'm not selling mine but I completely endorse them. I use one in my daily driver and finally can get the seat belt nice and tight.

I've been using my kids babyseat belt lock, you know the ones that come with all seats and most people leave them in the back of the seat. Works great for track days. The CG looks way easier to use. I've never heard of one till now, put me on the list for wanting to try one.

I used a CG Lock before I put in a roll bar and harnesses … passed mine on to someone

I run them on both seats in my DD / autoX mustang (or I did till one self destructed.) Been in there for over 5 years now. They're fantastic. A friend of mine who tracks was really impressed, called them the "perfect 90% solution for a street car." Meaning, 90% of the benefit of harnesses with 10% of the cost/problems.

But...none to let go cheap. Honestly, though, they aren't that expensive to begin with, and what you get for the money is huge. If you can swing it, just buy a new one. There's not much risk involved.

You can also use the free one that comes with the car if you have power seats.

Motor it all the way back. Tug the belt hard enough to trigger the lock... hold it and motor the seat forward until just before the belt cuts you in half.

Oh, and don't worry about being in an accident with them. I was using one in January when a car suddenly pulled in front of me. There was a big frontal impact on my car with airbag deployment and seatbelt tensioning. I was very snug in my seat before the crash due to the CG Lock and only my arms contacted the airbag. I pulled the CG Lock from the totaled car and installed it into my identical replacement. There will always be one in whatever car I own.
