Harness for stock seats
Hello,
I did a brief search and couldn't really find what I was looking for. Anyway, I've been doing some AutoX recently and find the stock seat belt isn't quite cutting it around the course. I've engaged the tension lock and slid the seat forward to hold myself in but I think long term that's using the belt beyond what it's designed for, really would like it to be functioning in top shape if I ever need it on the street. So I started looking at different harness options. Seems like most people have changed their seats as well (not really in my budget right now but the Corbeau TRS looks like a seat I could still drive daily with). The other half of the group seems to have a roll cage and plenty of mounting options for the harness because of that. In a "stock" interior, where have people mounted the harness? Since my class allows removal of the rear seat I was thinking I could use the bolts that hold that seat down, or maybe the LATCH points in the hatch, I'm kind of worried I'd run out of harness length though. What suggestions do you have for harnesses and mounting options? Looking forward to what you guys have to say.
Thanks!

Thanks. Where did you mount the shoulder straps and are you still able to use the stock seatbelt with you aren't using the harness, without taking the harness out of the car? And do you have any pics?

Rear seat anchors? and the lap belts the the front seat anchors I assume the rear mount bolts for the front seat? Sounds easy enough. Maybe I'll get one before this weekends driver school
