Default Harness Lap belt Installation question

Anyone know if a harness (lap belt for 4-point) install kit exist for our cars? Like some kind of triangular mounting bracket that's pre-made? I've tried searching on s2ki and Google, but no luck.. I'm also super short so I can't reuse the factory seat belt factory hole, won't be the correct angle for my lap belt.. I also don't trust using just a generic mounting plate/thick washers with our tin can floors, but if you have proof that our tin can floors with the mounting plate is tested and structurally sound, I would love to read more and consider that method. Any help would be appreciated!

Plenty of people have crashed their s2ks on track with harnesses that are generically mounted with eye bolts and a re-enforcement plate - no documentation or pictures of them ripping the mounting point out of the chassis. You'll be fine.

Was there something specific about mounting that you were trying to show us with that picture or just that you have a rollbar?

Thanks for the reply! I also couldn't find any pictures of crashed s2k's in general that has harddog rollbar and harnesses.. But I guess that's a good thing!

I had included the picture to show I have a roll bar and Bride seats for reference.. I posted this on FB's s2k talk & tech group and was asked what my set up was. I figured the picture would help. Someone mentioned I should post my question in this category on s2ki, hence why I'm hoping for help in here now.

Thread has video and pictures of a pretty hard hit on track. Harddog style rollbar and 6-point harnesses used.

Rob Robinette's site is pretty helpful in showing what you need to install harnesses
