lol thanks nova but i need to keep the rear seats, too many mates

but i was thinking run the strap from the back down to wear the bottom of the origional belt bolts to, then the sides to the subframe? would that work and be safe?

The belts NEED to be at a certain angle to work properly, the rear mounting points (the bottom ones) are perfect for it.

If you put them anywhere else, they won't work as well if/when you crash.

DO NOT use the C-pillar mounts.
Use the floor mounts.

If you fit them to the c-pillar(top rear mount) you might as well not bother wearing any restraint at all.
As if your hit from behind the c-pillar will just crumple forwards, meaning the harness will be slack=your face vs the windscreen.
Not good
