Rollbar with a harness mount.. I don't believe there are any safe ways to run a 4+ point harness without a rollbar or cage.

correct, a roll bar is the only way to safely do a multi point harnesses. I have seen a few people mount it to the bulkhead behind the seats but at that point you would have been better off getting a cage with harness bar.

I vaguely remember seeing an aftermarket bar that you can attach behind your seat to mount them, but it looked sketchy anyway.

To do it right in the S2000 you need a 6 point.

Shoulder harnesses attached to a roll bar. Lap belt uses lower seatbelt mount and seatbelt receptacle mount (attached to seat) or eyebolt with backing plate into transmission tunnel. Sub straps on either side of the frame rail using eye bolts and a backing plate.

Unfortunately I don't have a great picture.



This document was useful for my install, and I highly recommend Schroth harnesses, they come with all necessary hardware including eyebolts and backing plates: http://www.schrothracing.com/docs/Schroth_...n_Checklist.pdf

I picked up a custom made stock roll hoop that had a metal bracket that bolts to the roll hoop. It worked just fine with my 4 pt harness, but since than I have replaced it with a Harddog roll bar and and getting a 5 pt harness. (side note: I have for sale a stock roll hoop, the plastic housing, and the bar with mounting hardware for sale, pm me if you are interested)
