bolt the rear point to your rear seat belt clips under the back seat.

If you want to still use your rear seats then bolt them threough the rear seat belt recievers but leave them in also, this way you can still use your rear seats and rear seat belts.
I can still fit 3 people in the rear but the harness do slightly get in the way.
The middle seat is okay for someone to sit in but they have to climb over the harnesses to get into the middle seat first. Acceptable for kids in the back but you struggle with adults.
Do Not bolt the harnesses through the rear bolts of your front seats. This will not provide you with the correct protection if you are involved in a crash. They are recommended to be bolted into the rear seay belt reciever holes only.

When you bolt them in do you put the harnesses on the bottom then the original bits on top or the other way around?

it dosnt matter which way around you bolt them mate, just make sure the original bolts are long enough so they still screw into the chassis a good few turns.

Is there a particular torque they should be at? or just as tight as they will go??
Ive got bolts that came with the harnesses and they were used in a corsa before mine in the same way. Ill probably put them in on monday lunch time at college.
Cheers for the help everyone. At the next meet my car should be drastically improved, i.e new front and rear bumpers, possibly tinted windows and should also have a few nice touches to the interior!

Was looking at my seats and because they are so wide in the car im going to have to un-bolt the subframes to get the harness on the centre console side of each seat, will have to be thursday i guess.
