While approved caution if you plan to do 4 pt on passenger with say 6 pt on driver. PCA mostly doesn't allow that as they call for equal restraints.

I believe CMS mentioned some guys use existing mount to install sub belt. Sub should be wrapped was the recommendation. I went with the Cantrell plate for mounting the sub belt, was highly recommended here and elsewhere.

I use CMS bar and got their bolt on strap ends, great stuff and service from Brian.

4-pt are not permitted at NJMP, for those that track there.
