I ran a steel perforated ANGLE IRON BAR across, frame to frame on my 68C, and attached the seat belt fixtures with #8 hardware.
For the RUMBLE I have ONE belt connected to the body on each side which is good to keep the grand kids locked in during parades.
None of these things would probably meet present DOT standards, but they will keep you in the car if a door pops open on a curve or bump.
Keeping away from the steering post might be difficult as IT would probably come into the steering compartment. I figure to remember this and not be there by leaning over if time permits.
