Got my harnesses in the other day and installed them. The brand is G-Force and they are sfi approved and all. The are cam lock so the can easily be fastened and released. I fastened the two side straps by putting them over the rear seat bolt holes and the bolting the seat down over them. The two rear straps I fastened to my cusco strut tower brace. I wouldn't trust the stock brace for this though. The 5th point I haven't installed yet, as I have nothing to anchor it to. I was thinking of getting a pair of right angle steel brackets and welding a pipe between them, and running that between the front seat bolts to use as an anchor. I dunno yet. I also need to get some longer seat bolts as I don't think there is enough thread to safely hold the seats and the harnesses.

I bolted the side restraints down underneath the seat rail. I'm going to put in longer bolts so there is more thread to grip and try turning the anchor so the belts aren't twisted as much.

I haven't driven with them yet. Still waiting for stupid differential to come. I did strap myself in and pretended to drive though. Felt good. You can't move around like with the stock belts cause these don't give slack. I left the stock belts in for regular driving.
