I've seen it someplace before; not sure but I think it's a seatbelt manufacturer.

Manhattan you have it right. Google imminet.com and you can see who and what.

Ready Reach seatbelts designed with FDNY. Looking for configurations.

I don't understand what you mean by configurations?  It's a seatbelt......it just sticks out further than the old one.

FDNY uses the ready reach system in our apparatus, the new KME pumpers also have visual indicators to show who is using belt and an audible alarm when the belt is not being used. Basically it makes seat belt use mandatory which is a good thing with the open crew cab, members could become projectiles in a serious crash without belts. Another feature in these rigs is the seat also has a sensor similar to passenger seat in car that only alarms when someone sits in seat and does not buckle up.

I've been told the rear facing seats do not have them, I'm trying to find out what the rear facing seats have instead. Specing out a new rig.

ready reach on all FDNY seats from now on.

Like tbendick said, all seats have them, minus the ECC.  Older rigs have been retrofitted.
