Proper Seat Belt Instal

[focusedrage]

I just signed up for a high performacne road racign corse and I want to make sure my 5 points are installed correctly before i go.

I have Corbeau Forzas and will be installing G-Force SFI certified 5 points.

This is how i originaly though i would install them:
Crotch belt wraped around the frount bar of the seat bracket.
Lap belts wraped around the side bars.
and the sholder belts wraped around the rear strut bar.

If this is an acceptable way of instalation let me know, otherwise tell me what is please. Thanks.

Nope, forget the crotch belt, thow it aside, c'mon, you don't really want that thing anyhow, If you do want to have it there, then go ahead and wrap it around I guess. You will want to attatch the lap belt to the chassis someplace both on the left and right. For mine, I used one of the four 17mm bolt holes where the inertia reel was for the factory lap belt and on the left. For the right side lap belt, I used a 17mm hole where the seatbelt computer used to attatch. Your car is different from mine, but go ahead and pull out the center console and carpet and you'll probably find someplace to bolt it to. For the shoulder (I guess it's a Y-type) it seems easiest to unbolt one of the female ends of the rear seat belts then use the bolt hole to bolt in the harness. You don't wanna just wrap that belt around the seat rails though, you want it bolted to the chassis. Because the problem is sometimes the seat itself breaking away from the car, and you want the harness bolted to the chassis so that if it happens, the harness will be a net for both you and the seat. If you just wrapped it around the rails or wahtever, then if the seat breaks away, you will be firmly secured into your seat, which will be traveling through the windshield.

if you want an ejection seat type thing going on, then do it like that........., im picturing you flying through the windshield and down the road strapped to your seat
