Seatbelt fitting on THUMS in LS-PrePost – How to proceed?

      Hi,
      I'm working with THUMS (v6) positioned in a vehicle seat in LS-DYNA. My vehicle model (2014 Honda Accord from NHTSA) already includes a seatbelt model.

      After completing the positioning simulation, I'd like to fit this existing seatbelt onto the THUMS mannequin, but I'm not sure about the correct workflow in LS-PrePost.

      Could anyone explain how to properly adapt and fit the existing seatbelt to the repositioned THUMS?

      Thanks
