This was causing the buckle to sit off-center in order to provide adequate lap restraint.

So I decided to used the left seat-rail rearward anchor bolt as shown below. Works much better and now the buckle is centered and the lap belt is nice and snug.

Hope this helps.

Please let us know how it works out. I might change to this setup before my first track day...
This really is a great idea. I switched my mounting as you described above, and the harness fits so much better now. The buckle is centered and low, and the lap belts finally sit low and snug. The whole harness/HANS combo is so much tighter and secure now. Worked like a charm at NJMP over the last two days. Thanks for the tip.
