I attached the two lap belts to the OEM seat attachment points. You do have to change the grade 10 OEM mounting bolts with longer ones, also grade 10.

The fifth belt was a puzzle. I manufactured a 1/8"x1" bar that bolts to the forward seat mounting points on the floor and mount the fifth belt to that. I ended up removing the thigh pad adjustment mechanism since I always have it pushed towards me anyhow. I still use a rubber sheet on the seat. This keeps the shoulder and fifth belts from chafing the leather.

These are early install pictures.
I stand corrected, I'm surprised CCA has never given you a hard time during Tech. I know in NJ, a harness bar without roll bar protection is not typically allowed.

Btw, last time I went to VIR I stayed in the Villas. A bit pricey but seemed worth it considering I wasn't sure if I'd ever make it back down there. You have any good hotel suggestions for the track, if memory serves me correct Alton is the closest city?
