Default Pic request roll bar with harness and stock seat belt

Does anyone have this?

I have a roll dog bar with double diagonals and lowered harness bar with the stock bulk head

I've been wanting to put a harness in but I know with the stock bulk head it's not good to fit

There is. Replacement bulk head but I want to get the interior panels and secret compartment that's why I don't want to remove it

Anyone have pics of there setup?

I was thinking of eyelet bolts to raise the mount point or I have to notch the bulkhead

I can probably photograph something useful for you but am confused by the wording of your request.
Assuming that you installed a HARD-Dog Roll-Bar .. .
And assuming that you are using stock or approx-sized seats.

I have installed mostly same equipment as you mention.
And I have retained center-console, sct-compartment and the factory bulkhead.

So I am wondering if you are needing images of the lap-belt anchor-pts [eye-bolts in my chassis]
OR if you want to see examples of the harness-bar that is the anchor for shoulder-belts.

It is entirely possible to retain OEM 3-pt belts [and retract mechanisms] and duplicate that with a 6-pt SCCA compliant harness. The OEM Belts just route slightly around the main hoop of your HD-Roll-Bar. Then use one set of belts with a helmet [at the racetrack] and/or the factory belts on the hwy/streets.

I also have a solution for the 5th [and/or 6th] point of your pending harness [sub] straps.
None of this was a 2-hour plug in play - - especially since I decided to retain original S2000 seating.

the only way to run both safely is to use the replacement bulkhead bar. harness and oem bulkhead do not work together.

and if yo use the bulkhead bar, you have to get really creative to figure out a way to keep your rear interior.

of course, none of this is new to you. just wanted to confirm what you already know

Yep that's what I figured. I thought there wasn't a good way but wasn't sure

I know a member cut it before to notch out a way for it to route the belt. I really want to keep the interior.

And we are talking about the shoulder belt with aftermarket seat

Do you pass tech with that?

I don't have a problem with you method of relocating the harness upper mounting points, however, routing the shoulder belts over the shoulder bolsters of the seat is a big red flag to me. There is the potential of them spreading wide and ejecting the driver in the event of a rollover, which is a big reason to use an aftermarket seat.

Actually the seats I'm looking at now are Arizen, which are specially made width-wise for miatas and corvettes, and still have all of the harness mounting concessions made. The guys who track them seem to be fairly happy.

Anybody have any insight into them? I just got a rockstar double diagonal lowered harness bar, and I wanted to get a seat to eventually run a harness with. This looks like the best bet to me, even if it's not FIA approved.

The problem that I am having is that with the lowered harness bar is that it is blocked by the bulkhead. Unless you replace the bulkhead which means losing the interior. It's kind of useless to have a lowered harness bar

The rockstar bulk head bar let's you keep the center box as well as harnesses. We have 1 left in stock until the new ones are finished in a few weeks. Let us know if you are interested

Rockstar- do you guys have any photos of the bulkhead bar and can point out how it allows for reinstall of the center console? I wish I had known about it when I ordered my bar in the first place.
