Harness fitting

[CraigMillwardCroft]

Wanting to fit 5 point harness, is there anything in the floor area behind the drivers seat, or do I need to remove seat and sil trim and lift carpet to check. Have fitted the eyes to the back seat where seat belt was bolted.

This for the lap belts or the ant sub strap?

What seats have you got and how are they mounted? Might be better off with 6 point and mount the anti sub straps on the seat mountings somehow (assuming something like VAC mounting plates were used).

Still using the CSL seat so want to bolt the lap belts to the floor behind the seat, using the eye and plates provided by DT.

There is no hole in the base for the anti sub strap, there are no holes in the back to locate the shoulder straps and if you bolt the lap belts to the floor without some welding you'll end up ripping the floor if you crash.

Standard seatbelt would be safer than what you are proposing IMO, I believe you need to change the seats and use proper hard points for the harness mounting.
