What's wrong with mounting em under the rear seat? That's where I have mine mounted and the seat still fits over the top of them and retains the rear seatbelts for passengers.

oh i guess i've only seen by the head of the rear seat. i guess you know otherwise? is it still comfortable for back seat riders?

Ya what ur reffering to is a harness bar. Im running sparco 4 point and in the instructions it says the rear buckles are safe to use as a mounting point under the rear seat. This provides about a 30 degree angle which is the most u would want. If your in a serious wreck with them mounted to the floor it can compress your spine becuz when it stops you going forward its also pulling down. What I did was remove the rear seats unbolt the 4 buckles and mount the new harnesses along with the buckles in that location. Lengthened the harness and threw the rear seat back in.

Im not for sure as mine are 4 point. And as for if its comfortable for back seat riders I've had no complaints about it either they straddle them both or have one leg inbetween the two and the other outside of the harness. And I also kept my stock seatbelts upfront so most of the time if someone rides back there I simply pull the shoulder harnesses back through the seat and just have em in the rear floorboard so they don't have to straddle them
