Default 5 point harness HELP?

I just bought some racing seats for my truck and I need to buy a 5 point harness but I am confused with all of the options available. I basically need to make sure that I can bolt the shoulder belts to the floor. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

from everything that i have read and seen it is not recommended to bolt the shoulder harnesses to the floor if you were ever to get in a serious impact it would put downward force on your spine causing some serious damage If im not mistaken you are suppose to have a bar running parrallel to your shoulders behind you and thats what you hook in to

CRAP! Thats not what I wanted to hear. I really dont want to do a roll bar or cage in my truck. Thanks for the information, it is always important to think about safety.
