    Seat belts, 5 point.

    Trying to figure out where to place the 5 th point croch belts go. The manual shows vaguely seat belt install. And the left inner lap belt, should it be between anchor and tunnel, seems a very tight fit with the dynamite and carpet? Thanks in advance.

    You'll want to drill through the tunnel on those inner tabs to get the bolts secure. Remember, they don't need to clamp the belt mount, but only secure it to the tab. I used Nylock nuts and a large washer inside the tunnel. For the sub-belt, I mounted mine under the front edge of the seat through the steel plate. I am also using the Breeze seat mounts, so there is actually some room for the mounting hardware. Others have modified the seats to add a pass through for the belt or are using racing seats with a pass through incorporated in the bottom cushion.

    Timely post, this was on my agenda this am! It is odd that FF does not detail the crotch belt install.

    As one that needed the protection of the 5 point belts, please use them.
