Default 3 point harness on stock seats info please

I want a 3 or 5 point harness for a stock seat. Any help getting some brackets and belts. I just feel like I might not be able to keep my butt in the seat anymore and want something to hold my butt in and shoulders back without changing the seats or looking too ricer. I couldnt find anything on this site.
thanks

I use a five point with the stock seat. Once I cut a 6 inch slit in the head rest part of the seat for the two sholder belts to pass through, it worked great.

Ive been thinking of 5 points too, but im also thinking of adding roll over protection in the process.

5 points work fine with the pontiac seats. Though I wouldn't recommend them on a car that does not have a roll bar. During a rollover, the 5-point harnesses will keep your body upright which could have adverse effects when the roof collapses.
