Default Seatbelt harness recommendation?

Hey guys I am looking to get some 4 points harnesses to use at the track along with a harness bar... My question is what is the difference between a "snap-in" style and the others? I was looking at possibly getting this set : http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...ss-And-Bar-Kit


Is there any type you guys would recommend that would work with the stock mounting points?

Snap in has a similar clip to a carabiner that when wrapped around the bar will clip to the bar. A bolt in will literally be bolted into the car, it should be bolted to a hardened point that can handle the strain in the event of an accident. The Corbeau 5 point harnesses I have were originally bolt in but also came so they could be wrapped around the bar on my roll cage.
Best photo I have showing my set up.

Ahh thank you for posting that! The only thing I can't quite grasp is how the harnesses mount to the bar, or where they mount to as far as the shoulder harnesses go!

The Corbeau harnessbar is pretty good and adds stiffness in-place of a roll-bar.
Need to take out seats carpet and weld in floor bolt for the Soprano straps, those are the one between the legs keeping you from getting the lap belt under your chin:
$7-800 not including install.

Two solid tubes extend down to the floor on bothsides, you can see them just hiding behind the shoulder belt.

What did you replace it with, Roll-bar or is it retired from the strip?

Wanted to get rid of it got tired of being confined to the front area of the car. Going to get a roll bar.
