I saw one option with race belts attached to the panel behind the seat, a lot of buckling involved when you put it on/off.

I’m facing the same problem, my cab is painted and my window is installed, goofing with either of these is not popular with me.

If you search this site on this subject you’ll run across some pretty good articles on this.

Dan, could you show a couple of pictures on yours installed. I’m curious how far up the column you went. The Juliano site said “until comfortable” but I am worried that really high up may not leave enough strap to go around the gut, LOL.

I’ve attached some data that shows the folded up mess that makes up the colum.

John, I copied Dan's idea, mine are half way up on the "B" column. If you look at the last picture that puts the belt at the bottom of my skull when I'm seated in the truck.
