Buckles inside.
Not sure what you mean by an extra strap. Mine came with the upper two riveted inside and the two lower straps loose.
I have mine mounted on diamond plate with a three point mounting using the belt guard mount points.

straps inside.. be sure to wrap your swingarm in something protective, like Scotch 33+ tape to protect it, because those straps will eat right through the powdercoat on the swingarm. just get it night and tight, and cut off most of the excess amount of strap if you want to.
though I made the same mounting bracket that uses the belt guard holes

I installed mine on a plate too. I used WARGS writeup.

I used a Dremel and about four cutting wheels.
