Default recaro spg and harness install

I wanted to see how everyone was installing there harness. I just got a recaro spg and a takata 4 point harness. Any help would be appreciated, i have not the slightest idea on how to mount the harness.....in the s2k with the tunnel and stuff...also install pics of a spg with buddy club rails would help due to me still having a few fitment issues with that....THANKS IN ADVANCE!

BTW i dont have a rollbar

No one on this board will tell you to install a harness in an S2000 without proper roll-over protection. It's not safe and not recommended.

There's really no safe way to install the shoulder belts w/o a roll bar w/o a lot of custom modifications.

Use OEM belts untill you can install the bar.

They are not being assholes, they are looking out for your safety. If you rollover with a harness on and no proper roll protection, your head will be on the ground.

Having nice harnesses are good, unless they kill you because you are too ignorant to listen to the advice of others.

A simple search will show how there have been many posts like, "How do i install my new harnesses without a roll bar?"

The answer is to get a roll bar and attach your harness to it since that's the only proper way to install a harness. Using a harness without a roll bar in our car is a death trap during rollover.
