After looking at your pic of the plate under the rear deck, I think I'm going to make a 3"x4" plate of either 1/16" or 1/8" steel (whatever will fit), and drill a hole at both ends - the side closer to the seat will have the bolt for the shoulder strap, and then I'll add another bolt through the other end. Take a look at the 2nd pic in my first post and you'll see the hole I'm talking about. The bolt will be covered by the package tray so that'll be good, and I think will reinforce the whole setup.
