I have the Crow 5-point harnesses. I think they are about the same price as Simson and they already sell a version for the RVs. Might be the better way to go. Note: I haven't read the article you referenced, so maybe there is something I am missing.

It seems there are aviation and RV specific harnesses available.

Nevermind about the same price, the Simpson sets are 2X the crow price ($379 vs $179). However, they appear to be lighter. If you want to save weight, pass on the Camlock set, they are nice, but heavy. I do have the camlock.

I used the VANs 5th point kit for the RV-7, but cut off one side of the brackets and replaced it with a piece of angle so I could adjust the width. I also replaced all the belt ends from crow with standard triangular ends since they are shorter.
