What type of connector would I need to have on the belt to mount belt on the stock mounting on points on the seat?

would something like this work?

I presume you're referring to the lapbelts of the harness set up?

If so, you will need to unbolt the seat from the floor and you can just use the OEM points used for the stock seat belt (1 on each side of the seat). Unbolt those points and attach your harness belts there. I don't remember which went on the outside, inside, etc, I'd have to look at my car but hopefully the instructions will point it out or you'll see the best fitment before you bolt it all back together.

The most tedious part about it all was unbolting the seat from the floor. Hope this helps.
 
You may need to use replace the seat belt attaching bolts as well. They are 7/16 x 20 thread pitch (11mmx1.25mm). Use grade 5 bolts and locktite.

You mean use longer bolt. I guess my question was whether that mount bracket would work while keeping the stock seat belt in place...?
 
Correct. I am using a longer bolt to attach both the OEM seat buckle and the harness plate onto the seat mount. I ran the bolt through the OEM belt attach, then the harness plate, then into the seat.

At the time, this looked like a good idea as when the belts move with the seat, but sometimes the lap belt buckles are a bit annoying since I can't just toss them behind the seat. They would be out of the way if the harness plates were attached to the rear seat mounts.
