   Remove the plastic around the seat buckle, unbolt the buckle. Bolt in the the harness there.
   
   I assume you have already got rid of the standard belts so bolt the other side of the harness behind the door on the floor. It's where the little black railing for the standard belt bolts in.
   
   Bolt the rear of the harness to where the rear seatbelt buckles went.

   +1, I had them on standard seats while I waited for my subframes to arrive. I looked like a twat and they weren't very comfortable either.

   I dont think harnesses on standard seats or very safe, the 2 straps have nothing to stop them slipping down? Id say get buckets and go all out.
