the belts going off at an angle to the mounts. and the angle of the belts from the two at the front of the seat and the rear belt will be more than 90 degree. Should be in a "region" of 45 degree

if you have your OE belts then use them at MOT time. Probabaly an MOT inspector wont know how a 3 point harnsess shud be fitted.
