Seat Belt on a Ford 5000?

I sourced a Ford roll bar and put it on my 5200. It came off a 6700 or something so it is really close to what would have come on the tractor less the fender mounts and it had no canopy so I install an aftermarket job. Last night I got the tires the width I want them. Soon as it dries out where we can get in the fields it is going to work.

I knew someone that died within the last couple months in a rollover. Not wearing a seat belt and the roll bar crushed him.

I've got a Grammer Style Seat. How am I going to put a seat belt on this thing. I has hoping I could get a seat with integrated belts but those are all really pricey of course my life is totally worth $300. Any other options? I assume I could put some universal lap belts on it, etc. Never seen one setup like that and not sure of where I should mount them, etc.

Any ideas or anyone have a similar setup.
 
Some of the Grammer style seats have tabs with bolt holes on the upright that holds the backrest for anchoring seat belts. They
line up between the backrest and seat.
 

Where the bottom cushion bolts on to the seat suspension.. as you want the belt to move up and down with you... if need be, get a piece of steel to cover both bolts and stick out a bit for the seat belt to bolt to. That way it will have both bolts involve with the total load...from either side and both sides.
 
Thanks I will look at that.. I noticed that Argi Supply has a universal seat with a belt that appears will work. I am surprised most come without. Figured I was missing something. When I read safety discussions everyone always claims they have a seat belt on their machine. I would have figured there was an easier solution.
