Hi Ron,
I have a Y-harness installed for my (school-age) kids that converts
the standard rear lap belt into a 4-point system. I also required
very solid rear (tether) anchor points, so I welded them to the rear
deck just forward of where the rear hatch closes, but to the rear of
the engine lid.
Pictures to illustrate here:

Hope this is of some help to you.
