Default Proper harness mounting ?

Does anyone know where to find the proper way to mount a 5 or 6 point harness. For an example, I know that you do not want the shoulder straps to go strait to the floor behind the seat as it may cause spinal injury during a roll-over. I thought I saw somewhere where it showed the correct angle range for both the shoulder straps, and the sub belt.

Thanks.

route the shoulder straps over the harness bar in the cage or mount them to the cage.
the lap belts should be mounted behind the seat
sub belt goes through the seat not over.

From Sparco:

"It is strongly recommended that the shoulder harnesses are fitted as close to horizontal as possible. It is a must that the angle of the shoulder harness does not exceed 45 degrees in relation to the theoretical horizontal axis of the mounting points..................."
