Need a little help here. I did a quick test fit of a used harness bar I won on ebay. It came off another 914.
As the pic shows, I am struggling getting it to fit with the existing seat belt bracket. As you can see, because of the mounting plate of the bar, the existing seat belt bracket sits at an odd angle (it should hang straight down). The original belt is still usable at this angle, but it does make it bind somewhat. Am I missing something or is this just how it is? My idea was to keep the bar mounted in the car permentally, but of course use the standard belts for day to day driving. I appreciate any tips, thanks! Attached image(s)

I just let the belt hang over the harness bar, and the guide loop slides along it.
