Sybir, if that would work, it'd be awesome! I don't want anybody trying to F up their schedule for me tho, so if it's a headache, no big deal! |
The sedan bar won't work on a coupe because it's designed to bolt between the upper B-pillar seatbelt anchors IIRC. So it's sorta D shaped, which would put the bar into the back seats on a coupe.
Cory, I think you would save yourself a ton of headaches by going with some DOT legal Schroth harnesses. The 3 point bolts to the C-pillar seatbelt anchor and the factory lap belt anchors... they're nice and secure, won't make your back seat more unusable, are probably safer than a 4/5 point harness on a harness bar, and will cost a lot less than the bar and harnesses.
Also, I'd be hesitant to use the LATCH mounts for a harness. They're designed to bolt down a 15 lb baby in a 5 lb baby seat... not a 150 lb man in a 30 lb seat.
Anyway, my 2 cents is that harness bars make you feel good, but aren't really all that safe. Probably not a big deal while autocrossing... but for less money you can do the Schroths and be safer and still be strapped down nice and tight.
