>>>On the contrary--it's an incredibly strong restraint mount. In fact, this particular car was involved in a head-on collision that utterly destroyed the car, but the occupants were saved by their four-point harnesses. The car had a standard aftermarket
shoulder harness bar, attached with just these two bolts. The force of the impact was strong enough for both the bar and the firewall to give and bend slightly (which probably helped avoid upper body injuries), but the restraints held just fine, and in fact
there is zero indication of any trauma when looking at this thing from either side.<br>
<br>
You can feel perfectly confident about your seat belt mounts, that's for sure!<br>
