I am using an OMS alloy backplate and a new Dive Rite TransPlate Harness, which is just the best thing for the Meg. It makes it super simple to slip in and out of not like the usual wriggleing and writhing it used to take!!
I just received a new set of CL clips from ISC to rig it all up and they have supplied a sewn harness with the top clips offset in a Y configuration. In the centre of the Y at the top is a loop which I guess is the lifting handle, which will come in very useful, and a long 2 inch vertical strap.
Any help greatly appreciated.

If you haven’t cut the DR Transplate straps yet, you already have a great lift strap! When I rigged my carbon fiber backplate I also used a Transplate system- love it. When you set up the shoulder straps just work from the center of the strap outward when rigging it to the backplate. It leave you w/ a super strong lift strap that is also very easy on your hand. See pics.
Also shown is how I attach what is indeed a crotch strap via QD.
Hope this helps,
