Default Fitting a loop harness?i

Hi guys, my kit car was fitted with a 3 point harness but didnt come with any harness. i have got a set of harnesses but i am struggling to find a fitting to get the rear connected up, it is a stitched in loop, originally for going around the roll cage or something, i can get a bar made to go around the back for the loop to go around but i was wondering if there is a way to fit it to this point in the pic below.



cheers

wolly

So your saying just extend the strap in the loop as long as it will go, then cut it and fit a new harness fittings.

cant see why not, cheers.

If you cut it in any way don't forget to seal the end by melting it together again.
