Question Need Device to Locate Shoulder Belts to Porsche Sport Seat

Does anyone know of a device (straps or harness) that will locate and position shoulder harnesses using a stock Porsche sport seat. My problem is that my shoulders and torso are narrow, and if I use a BK harness bar, it positions the shoulder belts too far from my neck. When fully cinched down, I can still wiggle and extricate one shoulder or the other from the harness. One solution would be to substitute new seats complete with holes in the seat backs through which to route the shoulder belts. I do so few De's, that I'd rather not have to pop $1200 for a pair of Recaro seats.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

I am not sure which harness manufacturer has it (maybe simpson) but someone makes a shoulder harness holder/positioner. It is basically three loops of webbing joined together with the middle loop sized to fit over the head rest with two smaller loops on either side to position the shoulder belts.

Alternatively you can have a sternum strap sewn onto your existing shoulder belts. This is a buckle that is attached to each shoulder belt that crosses your chest. This keeps the belts from separating and falling off your shoulders.
