Default 5 points - mounting ?

for those of you that have 5 point harnesses.
where did you mount the lap belts?

I want to retain the factory belts.
did you mount them under the factory belts, or get the clip on simpson belts that clip onto an eyehook?

I want to easiest mounting where I can retain the factory belt operation.

R-D Racing sells a lap belt mounting kit that allows both factory belts and 5 pt lap belts to be used together.

I used the R&D system in my car here is what it looks like. The belts are in the way a little for normal driving but as long as your smart about putting the belts in you'll be O.K. Make sure you bring the lower adjusters up the belt before installing the seats or the seat won't go down. The directions given are very good and help you install everything fairly easily. :thumbs:
