Just so I'm on the right track, you wish to change your lap and shoulder belts to just lap belts? If so, I don't think you can legally do it. I notice you're in Maine: I know of their safety inspections and I believe they will fail you. If I'm correct, and I could be wrong, it is illegal to change factory installed shoulder and lap belts to just lap belts.

You're definitely not on the right track. .
Pretty sure the OP wants to know where to mount the lap belts on a 5 point harness.
I've seen them mounted to the section of the cage that is under the seats. If you don't have a cage, you probably don't need a harness. Check your local laws, if this is a street driven rig, you may not be able to pull the factory belts out at all.
Give a little more info. What are you mounting the shoulder straps to? You need a cross bar behind the seat for that.

I'm looking to add 5 points for when I'm on the trail. I plan on keeping the factory belts for every day use as one poster pointed out I am in Maine and the inspection standards here are pretty damn strict. I'm a police officer here and I still don't agree with a lot of the inspection standards. When I do install them I'll be adding the rockhard harness bar behind the seats as well.

As mentioned the mounting of the shoulder straps are very important, they are best done with a bar behind the seat like the one rock hard makes.
