well, for competition, it needs to comply with msa rules, but for road use, it needs to mount to the seatbelt bolt holes. ask Mike by pm. he's done loads of corsa rally type stuff,

5 harness eye bolts & 1 spreader plate for the floor pan :) (per harness)

EDIT: Make that TWO spreader plates as you'll need to weld one onto the trans tunnel (in a Corsa).

Ive got some pics of how I did some in one of my old cars, will try an find them an post in here.
