you really should run the anti-submarine belt.  its purpose is not to
snag you by the 'nads as some people believe, but to ensure that the
lap belts stay down over your pelvic bones so you don't get soft-tissue
injuries.

bolt a beefy piece of steel between the front seat mounts, and attach
the anti-submarine belt to that.  wrap the anti-submarine belt over
the front of the seat.  it'll keep the lap belts down.

that might create too much angulation of the shoulder belts, which increases
your risk of a spinal injury resulting from compression.  does somebody
sell a harness bar that attaches to the B-pillars of the UrS4?
