Sooo.. folks who have done this before - any gotchas you ran into or stuff that didn't go as expected that you can pass on?
Thanks!

You may have watched the video on the Racing for ALS channel.
Some additional tips:
1. Buy a couple quality drill bits. The CMS supplied bit will be toast after two holes. Lubricate the bit with WD-40 or cutting oil.
2. Center the holes and use a smaller bit to start.
3. The lower seat belt mounts required some modifications. The large backing washers had to be ground down on one side to fit flush on the underside of the floorboard.
This won't apply if you have mounts on your seat brackets.
4. The carpet/pad is super thick behind the front seat. Cut the carpet, do not drill a hole through it.
This won't apply if you have mounts on your seat brackets.
5. A second set of hands is needed to get the main hoop in place.
