Perfectly fine, but the eyelets into the seatbelt mounting points and clip the harnesses into them.
Fine for mot, just the same as a seatbelt being mounted in there isnt it

Don't need brackets?

The bolt in harnesses have flat eyelets attached to the straps, which you simply bolt to the belt/buckle mountings, using the original bolts.

Easy.

Can post pics later this afternoon as not on my computer here, but I'm sure I've posted some in Help Zone in the past for someone...

Steve look in my garage at J18

i had 4 points mounted directley to the floor where the orginal seatbelts in the rear were mounted too, the harness eyelets simpley screwed in as the same fine thread (1.25 iirc)

i then had an eyelet in the sill on the orginal mount, and a eyelet and an spreader plate on the subframe by the handbrake

To be honest its not hard for them to be road legal. as long as they are secure then it wont fail.

There are a company on eBay doing a pair of Cobra Monaco S for around £300

I bought mine from them, again back in 2008.
