SEXY SAFETY
So We pulled the plug on a nice 4 point weld in roll over bar and secure tie in point for racing seats and harnesses.
cant sit in the back seats anymore but will tailor the rear seat back around the down bars so the system is as street friendly as possible. we hide it from the side well pretty welds I think we are just going to clear coat this! nice TIGHT fit all the way around... |

I'm about to go talk to a cage builder near me and would love some reference photos to show him. I'm ready for harnesses but the car is still a daily driver so it needs to be street friendly like this.

The cross braces look like they will interfere with mounting the seat far enough back for me. I know that the stock seat is reclined past that point when I have the seat all the way back. The lower seat is almost touching the rear seat bottom and the back of the seat reclines from there.
Tall drivers may need a different design... |
