Thumbs up 5 Point Roll Bar

Hey I just oredered my Cusco 5point roll bar w/o Harness bar from Bulletproof. I got it without the harness bar because I didnt wanna loose the secret compartment. My question is where are other good spots to mount the harness? I heard Backyard Special has a kit that goes somewhere behind the plastic around the roll hoops. Any Ideas?



Thanks.

Those you can't use for the upper harness. Takata recommends a harness bar and those backyard will give you upper seat belt a 90 degree angle that will cause spinal compression. Meaning you will get messed up! I would call the people you ordered them from and tell them you want a harness bar. I decided to go the route you are going and I found the only way to do that was safe was spending as much as the cage cost just to keep that stupid hidden compartment. It is not worth your life.

On the picture I psted above where did they hook up the harness to?

If I attached anchors at the same Level as the harness bar but thru the plastic hoop area onto something "Hard" lol, will that work?

Dude buy the harness bar if you are going to run harnesses. You should also buy seats that are made for the harnesses. You gotta remember you are playing with ur life!

Yea I know, thanks for the concern bro, I wouldnt use a harness unless I had aftermarket seats. But yea, my friend with the s14 is selling me his red Bride's for cheap, but Idk how they'll look on my car & I have a feeling they're replica's. Is that bad?

I guess Ill just run the rollbar with my stock seat belt and seats till I can figure what exactly to do, I really make use of that compartment daily & I just spent $2500 on "JDM tight" stuff so another $250 is gonna suck.
