Does anybody have any pictures of how they mounted the sub belt to their 5point harness on their 924/944/968 or even a 911. Did you use a piece of angle iron spanning the width of the floor pan? or something else? thanks

Drill hole, insert eye bolt, install large washer and nut.

Same here, except I used a 4"x4" fairly heavy steel plate on the bottom to reinforce the floor pan in that area.

That's what I did (10"x10"). The floor under the seats is VERY thin and soft. When a basic drill bit goes through it in 1.5 seconds, you know that even a fender washer will pull out if it ever gets tested. Some will say that you need to do what you suggest - angle iron tied into the subframe material, but it's all a matter of degree.

Not really the best way... but i mounted them to the seat brackets.

Must be to car tub, not to the seat brackets.

does anyone have pictures of their setups to give me an idea of what im workin with here. I found a couple pieces of angled steel that i feel i could use but just wanna see whats been proven to work.

here's my setup. 1" angle iron, drilled and welded capture nuts on. triangle hole on the tunnel. triangle hole on the rocker. after fitment, welded along tunnel, along rocker. and across floorpan..except that center plug thing. remember u need to mock up the location so at the final seat position, the belt is 0 to 20degrees rearward of the sub belt hole in the seat.

While I recognize that this is considered the safest installation, isn't it required only for racing and not for DE, where the seat bracket mount is allowed?

Mounted this Brey Krause "crotch belt mount" in 911 one year ago.

Bolts across and thru existing seat mounting points on seat risers.

In my 87 911, I used the inadequate "reinforcement plates" supplied with my Schroth harness because they conveniently have the nut welded on. But I placed large steel plates behind them to provide an actual anchor. Otherwise, you're trusting your life to a 2x3 piece of "tin."

I use 6-pt subs so there are two eyebolts on each side, as you can see. The placement was further back for the passenger because I'm short and my seat is far forward.

It was simple, no cutting, chopping, welding. Just drill two holes, put in some waterproofing, and screw in the eyebolts. I bought the plates from the local steel supplier. They cut them for me as I specified. I think I used 3/8" thick flat steel. I don't remember.

Here are the pics.
