5pt harness
On a 5pt harness, the two lap points can be anchored at the regular points down low. the two straps over the shoulders ive seen anchored on the lower rear seatbelt anchor spots on the driver side. which leaves the 5th, i guess crotch anchor... where would i anchor that one?

DO NOT install a 5 point harness with the shoulder straps mounted too low. This can cause spinal compression in a frontal impact.

· Shoulder belts must run from the shoulders horizontally or down, at no more than a 20° angle.
· In cases where the shoulder belts must be routed down to the chassis floor, support by a roll cage bar or harness guide at the appropriate height is essential to establish the horizontal shoulder strap routing off the shoulder/HANS®. Most racing seats are not designed and tested to carry shoulder belt crash loads from downward installation. Severe injury or death could result. A 45° downward shoulder belt installation is possible with seats that SCHROTH has positively tested to take a load measured during a 50 kph [31 mph] and 28 G impact with a 75 kg (175 lb) dummy. Refer to the list of SCHROTH approved racing seats in section “About Seats”. </TD></TR></TABLE>
To properly install the crotch strap, you need to route the crotch strap through the seat.
