Default Sub Belt mounting points

Sorry, tried searching, and came away more confused.

How are you guys mounting the sub belts for harnesses? I read the Brey-Krause Sub mounting bar is being used, and then I read that the car has holes for eyebolts? What are you guys using? Pics would be huge but not necessary.

Thanks

Ok. Thanks. Did you mean either "will" work? If so, does that mean we have holes for the eye bolts? In that case, is the only concern with using them having to adjust harness length when moving the seat?

Not true. Some cars have both CS rear bar plates/studs and 5th/6th point eyelets welded in from the factory. Mine does.

Not yet. Couple months out from doing Clubsport, but it is definitely getting done. I do have to stop by. I have a new toy in the garage for the next couple of months I can bring. Will bring beer too.

I agree, it really is all about luck. There is no rhyme or reason whether a US car has them or not, but at the same time it costs nothing to check if the car has them.
