Default 5 or 6 Point Harness Pics?

This is to anyone who's installed a harness bar or similar and added a multi-point belt system. I have the harness bar and I'm considering a 5-point harness. Could you post any pics of your setup? I'm especially interested in those of you who modified your seats for the shoulder belts to come through the seat back closer in to your neck rather than around the outside of the seat. I'm an enlisted aircrew member in the US Air Force and our crew seats use a 5-point system. I wouldn't feel safe if the shoulder straps came around the outside of the seat as opposed to the way they are routed. I'd like to set my vette in similar fashion. I've seen it on pics of Calloway's cars and a few others. Hope to see a few of yours.

Thanks, :flag

I've got the 6pt for Hardbar.net

the shoulder belt are tight and don't move.

You mount the lap straps to same location as the stock one ( longer bolts provided ) I also ran the two subbelts to the same bolts after feeding them through between the seat back & bottom.

I did have them over the front seat lip first. That
a) didn't hold me in the seat
b) made the subelt straps cut into my thighs! :mad

Now there so comfortable I wear it under the stock belt for daily driving.
