You can get all the stuff you need from RJS racing... if you make a pattern/template for them they will make a custom one for you... they have the mounting kits also http://rjsracing.com/

Do you have a funny car cage in your car? I was looking for mounting ideas, I saw a double buckle on on a few Pro Stock cars and I was wondering how they attach the bottom. Thanks!

I do the double seat belt latch on the top and mount the bottom to the side bar.

Mine is a single seat belt latch on the front side. The back of it is a "slip tube" deal. The window net top bar slides into a short piece of larger diameter tubing.

Note that there are some rules on window nets location. NHRA does not specify where the net has to be but the IHRA rulebook states that the front of the window net must be within 2 inches of the rearmost point of the steering wheel. Most people probably don't care but I am a stickler for meeting the rules.
Also on the mounting... it cant be outside of the cage.. so watch where you put the mounting points... I seen a guy ahead of me in tech get bumped due to his being mounted on the outside portion of the tubing... they dont want the net/and mounts ground off if you flip up on the side and are sliding on it... that part is a logical rule Also if you go with one style net (I forget if its the ribbon or which) that it doesnt expire for SFI

Can get you a pic if you like. Just have to ignore all the fire extinguisher dust/residue
If you get a chance that would be cool. I know you're busy and I real appreciate the help!
