Racing seat seat belt guide installation?

I am looking into purchasing a set of seats similar to these and was wondering if any of you know how to install the seat belt guides on these? I felt the upper part where it usually goes and I didn't feel anything solid enough to screw them in.
Thanks

Most people don't put the belt loop back on with sport/race seats.

On mine, I just left it off and hang the belt over the top shoulder support part of the seat

An option would be a 5 point racing harness

Or maybe you could make a bracket that would attach it to the center neck plastic piece, and streatch over enough to screw a seat belt guide to.

I have been trying to figure this one out too! I have Corbeaus and the seat belt rubs up against my neck, and i really dont want a roll cage, so no 5-point harness for me either.
