The bar you wrapped you sub straps to is the seat slider locking mechanism and NOT intended for sub straps. For US cars you need an after market sub mounting bar like GMG, BBI has.
This is not safe. You've wrapped the sub belt straps around the seat sliding adjustment bar. Yes I am repeating an other's comment. Under the high forces in an impact, this can unlock the seat slider, enabling the seat to move forward or back during impact. You can run the sub belt strap back directly from the cutout to the steel bar at the back of the seat frame assembly. You don't need the aftermarket sub mounting bar. You can see the attachment in this video: ua-cam.com/video/YdP3HghUNFk/v-deo.html
The Schroth has a six-point harness system that is specific for the GT3/GT4 carbon fiber bucket seats. The installation would be far easier with the Porsche GT3 Enduro 2x2 harness and hardware kit.
Might be worth mentioning that the passenger side does not have the cutouts in either the cushion or the carbon fiber seat shell for the sub belts so the job is a bit more complicated. Baffling to me why Porsche does that.
Its a US requirement. We have a different Airbag system then what Europe does. The seats in Europe are cut out and the seat cushion has the slit in it.

Thanks for the input. It seems pretty solid. I’ll have to add the bracket
@@gtmachine6134 take the video down and reshoot it. Safety gear install vids should be taken very seriously.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Where did you source your harness bar? I am looking for a solution for my 981 Cayman.
Here is where i got the bar from www.fvd.net/us-en/HEI981001001S/club-sport-roll-bar-981-cayman-bolt-in-harness-bar-included.html
