I'm unfortunately slow to the fight, but I was wondering how folks are
mounting these? My machine is painted so I don't really want to mount it
from the outside skin. Seems like there's not too much load on the bracket
(assuming nobody tugs on the straps, which is probably not a valid
assumption) so perhaps just use sheet metal screws on the inside?
Thanks,
Marcus

I'm going to use rivtunts in the overhead console for the seatbelts, the headset bracket fits nicely on the cabin strut at the overhead attach point, these brackets are very nicely finished and ready to install..I know you couldn't make them as nice for the money spent and the time to fabricate...worth every penny and then some. You could easily just drill the cabin top and countersink to install the seatbelt bracket...I would stay away from sheet metal screws, a few 10-32 flatheads installed through the cabintop should work very well....I would drill the holes, mix some flox and epoxy and using a plastic bag like a cake decorator, inject the flox into the area the bracket attaches. Once cured, redrill and couuntersink.
These really do look professionaly made and look polished even though Don's says they are tumbled.

If anyone is curious how the maker of the bracket installed the harness bracket, open the attachment. If you have any questions, please feel free to call.

That is a very similar way that I used to attach my seat belt hangers.
I used a piece of aluminum, put nut plates on one side and then milled out an area for the nut plates to fit inside the honeycomb area of the top.
I then used pop rivets and epoxy to hold the aluminum to the ceiling.
It makes if very easy to remove my lights or seat belt hanger if I need to replace of have a better idea.
