You don't need a CG lock or harness in a road car. Ridiculous.

Not once have I ever thought I need one when I'm going fast round corners. Never even crossed my mind. Weirdos.

fixed back lightweight GRP shell bucket seats all the way.

Is it going to be used as a track car?

If so.... cage with harness bar. If not just use the rear seat belt mount points for the harnesses.

so why dont you just keep it as it is - save your money for your daily use car in 18 months time (although you always say 18 months time) and then invest in the puma when your in a position to make it a track day car

Seems a bit pointless putting all that money into the puma to utilise it a few times a year on the track

spending £500 on the seats will not increase the value of the seats enough to justify it. leave them, sell them as are in 18months and get some buckets
