Jeff,

You are correct about 4 points not being nearly as safe as a 5 point for the street. In an accident your torso wants to slide under the lap belts which can cause severe injury. Hence the role of the anti-sub belt. I just wanted a set of belts to use to mach up my mounts and then I figured I would turn around and resell them to someone else for street use, as we are going with 5 point belts in the end. But the car is many months from being completed, so I didn't want to spend the $ on a set of belts that would be half-expired (date-wise) by the time the car is sorted out.

Dennis,

One of my friends gave me a set of Deist belts that I am using to mach up my mounts, so I no longer have a need for these belts. Good luck selling them. I don't think Jeff meant to come across so abrupt. He just wanted to remind everyone that 5 points are a much safer alternative, if you can mount them in your car/seats. Thanks again.

Mike
