Five Point Restraint System
GT-2 vehicles are equipped with two complete and separate belt systems: the conventional 3-point belt and a 5-point belt harness. The five point belt
system consists of inboard (tunnel) and outboard (door sill) lap belts, right and left shoulder belts, and a floor mounted anti-submarining center belt. A
singe latch mechanism is permanently attached to the inboard lap belt and releases all remaining belts simultaneously. The single latch mechanism is
operated by turning a lever clockwise 90 degrees.
The inboard and outboard lap belt anchorages are shared with the conventional 3-point belt and are permanently bolted to the vehicle. The remaining
three belts (right and left shoulder and floor mounted center belt) terminate with hooks and are snapped onto eyelets. These belts may be removed by
unsnapping from the eye bolts.
Lap Belts:
Inboard (tunnel) side lap belt : shared with 3-point belt webbing termination plate.
