Well I have received my seatbelts and now I am again scratching my head
trying to get started on installing them.

Shoulder belts should be attached as high as possible, shoulder height
or above, to minimize back injury in an accident. That is nearly
impossible in a KR as there is really no suitable structure to
accommodate attachment. Mine are attached to a re-enforced seat back
cross member, not the best setup, while others build attachment
structure further back to keep the angle a flat as possible from
shoulders to the attach point. I've seen some that run cables to the
tail area but I consider that over done. I don't want different parts
of the airplane pulling on me in different directions in case of a
crash. Just my opinion.
