    ^True

    and as for mine the shoulder belts are wrapped around the roll bar, and everything else bolted in.

    The seat/harness setup looks great.

    I do agree to keep an eye out for some better harnesses, but also agree that they are an upgrade from stock crx belts lol.

    Isn't the only way to get a harness bar is to have a roll cage?

    Roll bar, yes. You shouldnt run the shoulder harnesses without a harness bar. In the event of an accident, without a harness bar the shoulder harnesses will actually pull you downward compressing your spine rather than holding you back. Having the harness bar changes the angle so that the shoulder harnesses can hold you from going forward.

    ^So can I just run them to the B pillar brace that I have? I built the bar and I can reinforce it and make it super strong!

    Yeah thats where mine were. But I was told not to put them there because in a wreck it would compress my spine. But I liked them better on the rear strut bar. I might just put them back. Are you comin to the V tomorrow? If so we could be the rear strut bar belt crew!

    I Mounted mine to a stupport bar that runs laterally between my struts on the trunk floor at about a 35 degree angle, however, i do have a Z not a crx. And, by the way Matt, your harnesses are fine, your not raceing the car on Road Atlanta. They also dont look bad, they match.
