    Anyone ever make their own harness bar?

    Sup d000dz


    So I would like to run harness's for my track car but currently don't have the need for a roll bar/cage nor the funds to make it worth doing. I know you can purchase harness bars becuase of how extremely unsafe it is to to run harness down the the seat sliders but I would like to build one up myself. I was thinking about using the stock upper seatbelt mounts from both the front and rear as mounting points like this



    So anyone done it or having anything to say?

          +1. Make cage, use cage as harness bar.

                        uh... no one is 'hating' just giving advice. If it is a dedicated track car I would think that you would want to be as safe as possible. I guess if anything happens we will just chalk another one up to natural selection.. :p
