Default 6 point harness mounting options

Hi all; working on installing a OMP fixed back seat and 6 pt harnesses with a roll bar setup. The one thing I can't get my head around is how I mount the lap belt and sub belts.

Anyone know the best options for mounting sub belts? I am ok for bolting in or going less extreme. Ideal is to have removable I-bolts to bolt in to?

As for the lap belt, is there any easy way to mount it safely and keep 3 pt belt functionality for the drive to/from track?

Thanks.

Sub belts will mount to a sub bar under the seat. The sub bar is typically mounted to the floor mount. This is a bar that spans the floor mounts and your belts will wrap the bar, under the seat. Check out the offerings from Brey-Krause. Lap belts can be fastened to the side mounts with eye bolts and D rings.

I used the Brey Krause sub bar and accessories to keep the inboard lap belt functional.

Yeah I ended up going with that mount setup, OMP HTE-R XL (carbon version), have hans device, schroth profiii 6pt harness, and deciding on roll bars. Probably go with cantrel or RSS930 that mount to shock towers. Kind of sad I must sacrifice my Bose subs. Worth it though. Going to feel completely safe + covered on track with this equipment + lockton on my side.

I also went with an OMP cup type steeringwheel, momo hub, QD. This will no longer be daily.

Wallet bleeding but it's good equipment I can re-use in future track dedicated cars and convert this puppy back to stock should the need to sell ever arise.

Also, MDRUMS: I've been stalking all your old posts on this same issue
