It's a shim to fit kind of thing. Once you start installing it you'll see that some bolts only go in one place. I installed mine by trial and error.

I used the NRG bolts for the top and I think I used the OEM ones on the bottom.

did you pre-measure the pillar widths before ordering? i know it comes with a make model and year, but it is very general and even states pre measure before ordering to ensure you get the correct one.

He has the right one. Because there's 1 inch on each side use a long bolt and the thick washers that came with it.
Here's the order
Bolt - Bar - thick washers (several) - chassis hole

Notice that I have a stock 3-point harness on the passenger's side and a 4-point harness on the driver's side.

There's 1 or 2 washers before the stock seatbelt bracket. This way it can still rotate. So, it's close to the plastic, but barely scraping.

We sell NRG harness bars, never any trouble with installing them though.
