If the belts are at a downward angle from your shoulder to rear anchor point they are too low. I think you'd be pretty short if tour shoulders aren't above the rear deck. There is a cross bracket that mounts across the roll bar that gives the correct height. It has eye hooks to attach the belts. In addition the bar that the belts are attached to in the trunk isn't really meant for attaching belts. As a matter of policy shelby American will not attach belts that way.

You have mentioned this before. Can you post a picture of your car? If I envision this correctly, I don't think I've ever seen a Cobra with the belt mounted like that. If there are, then it must be an extremely small percentage, unless I'm envisioning it wrong.
