Default Racing Harness install

I am gettin ready to purchace some corbeau racing seats for my car and i cant figure out a good way to install the harnesses for the seats. i was hoping that maybe one of you might have suggestion. my last resort is a 4 or 6 point cage with a harness bar.

I'm curious as well, I just put a Bride Zeta 3 seat in my car with a pretty low seating position. I passed the broom test by 2 inches and am now wondering if there is a safe way to mount a 5 point harness.

if you don't want to put a roll bar in and mess with the plastic you'll have to modify something to maybe go around the roll hoops?

i don't know any other way unless you mess with the plastic or put in a roll bar.....


........i have nothing to worry about

i have an elda bar! it's great, functional, and badass, but, you have to cut the plastic behind both the driver and pass. seat.

long story short, they are not being made right now. the go fast labs is trying to find a good welder to fabricate these bad boys in bulk. so you would have to do a custom bar like 3312dc has done or you guy a crushco and just have it for a harness bar (not functional for safety)

I hate you Dan, I've hired Ocean's Eleven team to devise a plan to steal your Elda Bar.

you don't really want to run a 5 point harness on the street anyways... it limits your ability to turn to view your blind spots, will also limit your ability to tuck incase of a roll over... (hense the reason you need a roll bar)....
