I am trying to workout where to mount a 4 point harness, for the middle seat of my TD5 90 hardtop. The harness is an ExmoorTrim one, that I purchased from Brookwells, which actually turns out to be manufactured by Securon. On the ExmoorTrim site it does state that the harness is suitable for fitting to all Defender front seats.

Now there some very generic instruction on how to fit the harness, but nothing on how to fit it to a Landy. I think that I can secure the lap part of it to the existing belt mounts on the seat box, but its the shoulder straps that I cannot figure out.

My best guess would be to secure the shoulder straps to the rear of the bulk head, by drilling some holes and putting the plates and nuts on the other side (the seat side of the bulk head).

I have attached 2 pictures; the Securon image of where to mount the harness, and one showing where I believe the shoulder straps could be mounted.

You need to mount it to the chassis, at somewhere towered the back of the tub. Or to a roll cage .
But to be honest if you are fitting seat belts that could one day be need to stop someone from being killed then I'd suggest you have it done properly by some who really knows what there doing.
 
And is the seat box the chassi?!?!

Theres nothing difficult on fitting a harness!!!
The 2 points that run down the side go to the existing bolts where the standard seatbelt is already mounted
The ones that run through the back can go on a similar structure

No need to be to the chassi
 
Its all about maintaining that angle,as anyone sitting in the centre seat will have there shoulders up above the back rest, It is then you measure the angle which will determine the location on the rear floor, with spreader plates fitted . The fronts are mounted either trough the factory fitted rivinuts or they bolt through a stiffner on the seat box
