I've got them in mine :) The rear eyelets use the rear seatbelt mounts, one of the fronts also goes in the seatbelt mount and the last one fixes to the trans tunnel with a FIA plate :)

The rears should be higher really, but without a cage you stock tbh. I did look for a harness bar, but couldn't find one for the S15. Mazworx do one for the S13/14, but when I measured the width of the car they were not the same :(

I was thinking about welding fia plates on too the parcel shelf or welding a piece if cds tube in between the rear shock towers to wrap the harneses around but im unsure if the straps will be long enough

I wouldn't rely on the parcel shelf, it's not that strong. Welding a decent bit of tube between the towers would be a better option, I think my Luke harnesses would just about reach but it would be very close.

If I knew it could be made to fit I'd buy one of these...

I did see that, saw that it said it was made from ally which sounds a bit pants imo :)

Is your car in bits atm? If you can get a measurement between the pillars where the seatbelts bolt on I can get it double checked to an S14 :)
