Inertial reel shoulder harness - retro fit?

Granted that engine failure (stopping the whirly thing up front) is
uncommon it happens often enough that we drill on it in primary training,
flight reviews, and.... And every POH I've seen, certainly not all by a
long shot, has a check list for engine failure in various scenarios. If
something impedes me performing the check list ... Yeah, I worry about it.
Or did I miss your point, Newps?

Of all the things to worry about in a plane it makes about as much sense
is where the prop stops on shutdown.

I've decided to opt for the B.A.S. system for the SkyHawk. In
response to the post about the reel breaking down and the belt then being
useless -- I find lots of testimonial about how the shoulder harness
prevented serious, perhaps even fatal, injury and nothing about the reels
breaking down.
My problem with the fixed length, is that even with the belt loosened
to its max length, I can't reach the fuel selector valve on the floor.
With it cinched down for take off, I can't touch the instrument panel
with my finger tips and its all I can do to keep the throttle all the way
in with only one finger pushing on it.
The last thing I'd want to contend with if the whirly thing quit, is
unfastening that belt to get to the valve and then buckling it back up
before making an off field landing if I couldn't get the noise maker back
in operation.
Ross, thanks for the positive response. Too bad there's no
competition for B.A.S. to get the price down.
