     One thing you must be absolutely sure of.  The the shoulder harness
     DOES NOT pull you down on your seat.  This is the purpose of the
     lap belt.  If your shoulder belts put too much pressure on your 
     shoulders in a DOWNWARD direction this WILL injure your spinal column
     eventually.  This will be especially evident if you take a bumpy ride
     with "up and down" decelerations.  
     
     disclaimer:  I am not acting in any  professional capacity and these 
     views are my own.
