I am putting some GTS II Corbeu seats in my truck project. I need to weld a bar into my roll cage for the upper shoulder straps. They are telling me the angle of the upper straps can be anywhere from horizontal straight back and go down no further than a 45° angle. I know there's lots of buggy guys on here. So do I just take a stab at 22 and a half degrees and put it in the middle? Is more or less angle any better? Sure seem like a wide spread that you can have those belts.

this is the thing I have always gone by.  if the belts are going over the seat but under the headrest, it seems that a bar straight across to alight with this diagram would be ideal.  the window might booger that up a bit though....

if its going over the seat back, I dont see how 1" or 2" or 20" below the seat back really matters.  its what is going to dictate how it rides on the shoulder.
