Default Tequipment roll bar install. Where does lower seatbelt mount

Am almost done with the fitting of my tequipment roll bar however I am stalled as I'm unclear where exactly the lower mounting point for the standard seatbelt should go.
Has anyone got or seen the official instructions for this.
Does the lower belt anchor mount between the bar and the body, on the inside ie between the bars feet and the securing bolt or do I fit it up onto the gt3 seats in a mirror image of how the seatbelt recepticle is attached.

The easy thing to do is mount them directly to the seats. That way if you ever want to remove the seats you can. Remember to thread the seat belt through the shoulder hole in the seat before attaching it. If you mount the belt to the original location anytime you need to remove the seat you will have to remove the bolt from the lower rollbar mount. If that bolt is removed with the other bolts still installed you will not be able to re-install that bolt, trust me on this.
