    Thanks for that link. Ill check those out as an option.

    Still trying to figure out a way to use stock seatbelt. May even try to move the guide with spacers/washers. Or see if the Carbon Miata extenders would work in the bolt location behind the roll bar that mounts the bar to the car.

    Car isn't exactly my daily driver. I drive it once or twice a week to work and back, if that. And when I am able to run a few errands if my son is at my parents'. And its only on the road 6 months out of the year.

    What is the concern with 4 point harness? I used them in my previous Miata. And that car was my daily driver.

    Nothing safety related really, just a matter of personal preference. I find it a bit of a struggle to get them on/tighten them properly/drive/take them off/make them loose so that you can fit when you get back in/repeat, plus it is kind of a struggle trying to reach the radio/glovebox/anything. At least I would have to unbuckle every time.

    I know for safety I always felt safer with the Willans on than I do the 25 yr old worn, faded belts. It does present a challenge sometimes to get buckled / unbuckled and reach the glovebox but I can reach radio just fine. Long arms help lol
