You will need to check the length of the straps from the shoulder area back to where you mount the straps in the back of the RX.
The Caterham style tend to have short lengths after the shoulder as the seat back is close to the strap mounting on the caterham chassis.

When I was looking, I could not find a kit car style long enough, but good luck.

Thanks Chris ! They are short indeed. Is there some kind of extension that i can use maybe?

If the ends have eye bolts or clips, then no. You would have to cut the strap to remove the eye bolt or clip, then find suitable straps with buckles to thread the caterham straps in to.

As your life depends upon the integrity of the belts and mountings, I would recommend buying the right ones.
