Paul,
Soloracer.com has the belts. There are your typical 3 point belts, plus a 3
point with the inertia reel, they call it "auto-control" or something like
that. Prices are about $150 for the 3 point harnesses (per harness) and
about $230-250 for the auto control. Also, if you deal with Schroth
directly, don't tell them what car your using it on. They are indeed very
reluctant to sell them to you for a non-approved car.
