I don't know if this is what your looking for but this is what mine looks like, At first I had a single point where the shoulder straps were secured but this caused the belts to be too close together and squeezed my neck on both sides. I separated the belts and built the aluminum bracket that still  fastened to the original mounting point but separated the belts to make it more tolerable around my neck.

Very nice, roll bar and harness bar. I was wondering if one could pick up the frame an just put a bar across the back of the car behind the seats, I’m not sure if it would matter that the attachment points would be below shoulder height. I’ve seen the setup on 911’s that have a single attachment that Y’s to two shoulder straps. 

I think they need to be shoulder height.  That's why I recommended the Miata roll bar. Would think you'd want your chest to absorb any impact not your collar bones or neck. Most cars with 3 point harnesses anchor the upper mount on an adjustable slide mount.

shoulder harnesses or belts must be mounted vertically. Seat belts are not to be mounted to sheetmetal, but to frame, rollcage or factory seatbelt mounting points. Shoulder harness should not be anchored more than 1”–4” below shoulder height. Mounting below this height may cause additional spinal compression.
