My shoulder belt attach points are less than ideal and I wouldn't
recommend them to other builders.  My seat back and cross 
member is considerably strengthened to support the
weight of pilot and passanger entering and exiting the cockpit
so that is my attach point.  While I think the attach point is 
strong enough on "my" KR, it places the attach point below the
level of the sholders and this will will cause a considerable
download on the back and shoulders on a high G impact.  
The attach really should be closer to shoulder level to prevent this.

I had considered placing "risers" on my seatback to raise
the shoulder belts but I have my gullwing door positioned
so I can use the seatback to enter and exit.  These "risers"
would make it VERY inconvienent to enter and exit so I
had to compromise.
