The modern 3-point inertia type are just fine. But i'm not sure how practicle they are for mounting without alot of bulky reels and ratchets and so-forth.

I used simple mid 70's type belts because they were ez and that is all i could find in green and i wasn't about screw up any color combos in my car.

Mostly, i installed them just to demonstrate good intentions within modern law. Driving an older car, no matter how nice always invites critisizm if a minor mishap occurs that pisses off someone.

The shoulder strap is rather conspicuous to passing motorists and the hi-way patrol.

Mite be further ahead just to keep it simple. OR, install a Snell Foundation approved racing harness.

OR, in the immortal words of one of our more popular correspondents:
"Seems like some people are just looking for a simple solution to every problem".

GUFWAH -HaHaHa HA HA HA HA.
