Well.....all you need are the bolt ends

http://www.racerwholesale.com/Mercha...nting+Hardware

You will need one for each end that is to be attached to a factory point IE if you are rapping the shoulders around the roll bar then you will only need 3 per seat. On the other hand if you are attaching to the rear lap belt points you will need 5.

I will STRONGLY suggest you get the 6 point unless your seats have the hole in them to allow the sub belt to be mounted properly. With the 6 point you can attach each sub side to the rear seat mounting points and run it around so you are sitting down on them. The main rason for the sub is to hold the lap belt LOW in the event of a crash. The lap belt can ride up and crush your liver or break a rib...not fun either way.

Hope this helps

Ciao'

First make sure you get an H-Style wrap shoulder belt.

If you plan to mount the lap belts through the floor:

- 2 SPA-100 Seat Belt Mounting Back-up Plates
- 2 AUT-107 Snap Hook
- 2 AUT-109 5/8" Eyebolt, Nut & Washer

This will allow you to remove the lap belts should you ever want to. It is also a very solid mount and will allow you to use the proper mounting geometry. Mount the sub to the seat bolts and do a wrap-style mount on the bar for the shoulder belts.

If you just do the bolt ends MAKE SURE you get grade 8 hardware and I would still recommend going through the floor with the backing plates.

N24RE: I can't seem to find the sabelt 6 point harness on the racerwholesale site. Are those still sold?

And I assume that we'd want the "pull up" harnesses, so we can adjust it while strapped in?

btw N24RE, is your nick an airplane N number or something?

Yes, they are still made, you might have to call and ask.

In sedans, pull up or pull down works fine. Most cars have pull down.

In tight sedans, sports racers, and formula cars, pull up is usually prefered.
