I'd never install that kind of seat without significant structural floor bracing. Particularity at the front of the seat. Without it in a collision the seat could simply puncture through the floor. Stick with independent belts and use the stock mounting locations. They are there and they work.
Thanks Stingray, thats something i hadn't considered.
