Has anyone come up with a stronger method of  attaching the front seat shoulder harness? The 5/16 countersunk holes don't seem  that strong to me. I'm no engineer, but I would like something more  robust.  What has anyone else come up?

I’m sure they are plenty strong.  If the impact is strong enough to shear that bolt your f****d anyway.

I'll bet these attach points are designed to  fail - at just the right force -  so the occupant has a fighting chance of  survival. I compare it to the passenger compartment of my wife's Saab 900. I  gave up its life to save hers.
