Default Mounting Schro 6 point harness in Cayman GT4

I have the factory Carbon seats and cage. The belt came with 4 bolts but how do I mount shoulder harness points (2) to cage. Do I need an extra bar or some mounting to go on the bulkhead behind the seat.

Question

I was actually just going to post about *which* 6pt to install. Is everyone here using the GT3 Schroth belts https://www.schrothracing.com/produc...sche-harnesses or the Profi IIs?

Both will work, it depends on the end attachment hardware.

Thanks for the info.

Can you point out specifically what end hardware I need? My local Schroth dealer doesn't have experience with GT3s/GT4s. I have the LWBs and the Cantrell cage/sub bar.

I'm getting my Harness installed this week, we are using the BBI sub mount hardware. I purchased mine through Cobb.

If you ordered the Schroth GT3 belts, they already come with the proper end attachment for lap belts to connect to the LWB seat. Scroth's websites indicates there is no modification needed, and the tech that installed my set up, which is identical to yours, had no issues.

The sub-belt and harnesses are wrapped. On my Cantrell roll bar I mounted the harness inside the Cantrell locations. Pic shows 4 point harness to bar, second pic is 6 point bub-belt to Cantrell seat mouint.

As others have pointed out, you have a sub bar, so you only need buckles... which should come with the belts.

I think the Cantrell sub bar is a better solution. I'm switching from the BBi to Cantrell this spring.
