5 pt Harness securing

When I was looking at that spot to put seom screws in for my system, it looks like the tank is almost flush with the floor. I had an 88 16v though, there's a slim chance it's different. Underneath your rear seat should be a round cap thing. Unscrew it (3 or 4 screws holding it down) and you can see the gas tank to get a general idea of clearance.

gas tank and the floor to attatch the hooks? I know I would have to drop the
tank to do this but thats the minor problem.
Peace Out,
