Need 4 point harness mounting positions (pictures please)
I'm using the 2 stock seatbelt holes on the sides for the side parts, but for the shoulder pieces to the harness I need to know where to bolt them to.
I want to do this as properly as I can until I get a harness bar. At first I thought about using my rear strut tower bar but sonikrat explained why that would be bad.
I know a lot of people use the POS hatch belt bolt positions (under the rear carpet) but I think that's a terrible idea as those bolts are so small and flimsy they could tear out in a crash.
What else would work? And when I say work, I mean work WELL.
Pictures would be cool, but a description is fine too as long as I can understand you

I've seen them mounted to the rear strut bar and didn't know that was a bad idea. Can you tell me why thats bad? Not that I don't believe that it is, I just never was told that it was bad.

Well sonik was telling me that it's not really meant to withstand that kind of load if you got in a crash, and since the bar is only held on by 2 nuts on each side it could actually rip it off and cause all sorts of problems. He said he's seen it not "work" properly I guess you could say.
