harness for M2 strut bar?

anyone with the M2 harness/strut bar, any recommendations for a good harness that goes with it?

i know "any" harness will bolt into it, but there are a lot of options....
the bolt holes seem a bit too far towards the center of the car to me, so was thinking of getting one that has a 'Y' or 'V' and just bolting into the outer hole.

leaning towards the Simpson camlock 55'' Seat Belt Roll Bar V Harness but i'd hate to get it and find out it doesn't fit right.

and please no lectures about a roll bar. i'm 6'6" and there's no way i'm fitting in an FD with a roll bar. plus my car is driven 95% on the street so the risk of smashing my skull on the roll bar getting hit by some drunk driver would be far greater than the risk of crushing myself in a rollover on an occasional track day or autocross.

Get a 5-6 point camlock w separate belts, clip-on ends,
pull-up hip belts and pull-down shoulder belts.

If you plan to do any tracking the y-harness will not be legal in most clubs. Go ahead and get one with seperate shoulder harnesses.
