Not relevant whether you're male or female, the shoulder harnesses fit either the same way.

... 5ft - 1/2" .... I have to agree with Rebel ~ the shoulder straps always chock me in every truck or car I drive. ... I generally pull the shoulder strap down a bit and clamp it with the strap across my lap ... the clamp is easy enough to remove if I suddenly need to for the scales or DOT ... even if the truck has a slider to lower the shoulder strap ~ I have to lower my seat enough to reach the peddles. ... so the shoulder strap will never be low enough for me ... it's just a way of life, being short has never stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to .... :wink:
