This is the only photo I can find that shows it at all. You can't see the clear tubing protecting the cables, but you can kind of see the climbing carbineer wrapped in tape. I agree with with the comments that most front "pit" should restraints are not going to help after a certain G force. I do hope it would help in a ground loop, upside down type situation which is the most common. I think going up to the upper wing attach points is probably the best. Just bolt a fitting to each one with a hole and hook your harness up into it. The force of the occupant would be taken by the four swages, each of them are double-swaged. At least one on each side would have to "give" for things to move forward. I hope I don't have to test it. My pilot shoulder harness also relys on cables/swages which anchor into the tail-post area.
