Re: Where to anchor 4 point belts.



I don't know where the 4 anchor points are on a spider. On my GTV, we found 
cross members in the chassis and anchored the lap belts near the end of the 
seat tracks. The other anchor for the shoulder harness strap was anchored 
behind the middle of each seat. I'm sure there are some Alfisti on the digest 
who use their spiders in racing events that could advise you on anchor points.

 Marc could you or anyone else shed a little light on where the 4 mounting 
 points are?  I have a hard time visualizing this.  Do 4 point belts require 
a 
 roll bar to anchor to?  I have the original belts in my car and have very 
 little confidence in the buckle itself much less the old fabric of the belt. 
 
 My buckles will sometimes just not catch even though an audible clic is 
 heard.  I look down and just find the belt apart.  So, I have been trying to 
 pay attention to the seat belt discussions.  I would like to keep the old 
 buckles if they can be made to work well, they have that old wonderful 60's 
 look and the logo.
