Hi Guys quick question, I just got my recaro pole positions and the width is perfect.

My question is regarding the shoulder holes for the harness's

so shcroth, simpson, and basically everyone states "Shoulder belts must run from the shoulders horizontally or down, at no more than a 20° angle." and also that it should not in any way be deflected by the seat. So the thing is, I had a belt that I just held to my chest and my brother hold it horizontally behind me. At horizontal (0 degrees) the belt is deflected by about 1 cm. when I moved it at a -20 degree-ish angle there was no deflection. am i good? i feel like im cutting it close and im really only worried about spine compression
