Most DME suppliers can equip a w/c with a 5-point harness for better stability 
and support.  Ask them about it.

  THAT WOULD BE GREAT. I WILL OF COURSE BE USING THE REGULAR RESTRAINT IN MY 
VAN BUT NEED JUST SOMETHING SO THAT IF I HAVE TO BRAKE QUICKLY MY BODY DOESN'T 
GO FORWARD.

  THANK YOU SO MUCH

    I use a shoulder strap now, but I have someone put it on before I get into 
the vehicle.  I can go all day with an on, but I preferred to usually only have 
it on when I am driving.  If you would like I can try to have my brother take 
some photos tonight or tomorrow and send them to you. 

    As for Velcro I have a friend that had a shoulder strap that came from the 
right side and then went down to his left.  It was bolted in down on the seat 
and on the upper right of the back rest.  How he was able to secure it was by 
putting the top strap through a D ring and then attaching the Velcro of the top 
strap to itself.

      HI EVERYONE
      I REMEMBER SOMEONE ON HERE WHO HAD A VELCRO STRAP MADE TO HELP HOLD THEM 
UPRIGHT WHILE DRIVING. SEEMS IT ATTACHED TO HANDLE AND THEY USED THUMB TO WRAP 
AROUND AND VELCRO.
