youve put a lap strap as a crotch strap then
take the lower one off where it is that and the one you have left should go horizontally across the seat to the lower seatbelt mounting points

Lol so had a look Alex and I've took the crotch one out and clipped the other one in so now it's a complete lap strap but can't figure out where the bolt too or clip too as both ends have a clip type on them.

you need eye bolts then and they will go in the shell and seat subframe where the seatbelts are anchored
rally design sell eyebolts cheap as chips

So as some of you no the cobra leather interior has now gone, currently on standard interior at the min but that's not important lol.
What's more important is the new engine I bought I stripped the cylinder head and had it sent to Liam at C&H tuning so he could port and polish the head etc and after hearing from Liam yesterday he told me the cylinder head had arrived with him and that the head is really decent ie valves etc so soon as I receive some pics from Liam I will upload on here.
One of the lads on 106 owners produced 150.1 ATW with same mods as me plus bodies and of course one of the heads done by Liam so should see some pretty good gains from this.

Did you put bigger valves in or just polish the head?
Looks good either way
