A question about seat fixings...

It says in the rules...

Quote:
Fixed using a minimum of four 8mm bolts (ISO 8.8) and 5 sq inch spreader plates.
So are the original seat mounting points not allowed?

This seems a bit odd considering theres no regulations about how the harness is attached to the car. Surely eye bolt spreader plates like the ones sold by DW, http://www.driftworks.com/catalog/im...olt-plates.jpg, are far smaller than the specified 5sq" seat spreader plates and are more likely to pull through the floor.

Dont see the sense of it if the harness possibly comes detached from the floor but the seat remains in place.
