finally sparco has a harness bar for the fit. a shop called speedware out in redmond, wa does work for sparco, building harness bars and seat backets and aslo there the main shippers for sparco and recaro seats in the northwest.. i let them use my car to mock up two harness bars. one for me and one for sparco.. they both got shipped out to powder coating. currently i dont have pictures. but i will in the next couple days. next friday im letting them use my car again for them to design seat backets too.. ill post update and pictures when i head back up to speedware.

 

awesome!!!

looking forward to pics!

 

nice can't wait for the pics!

 

you should hit up the wa fit meets. i want to see this in person.

 

when are these fit meets? i normally goto honda tech meets..

 

ikea additional parking garage. check the official wa fit meet thread

 

aight i finally got a pic from my phone. here it is all tack welded and fitted.

 

so how do you install it in the top part and bottom?

 

It looks like they used the seat belt bolts to attach it up top and at the bottom it uses the outer bolt on the front seats. Yes u will lose the seatbelt height adjustment but u won't be using them anyways cuz u have a harness bar. =]

 

yeah but the top ones are covered. id like to know how you get those off cause i was going to use my friends harness bar to test it out but couldnt get the plastic covers off the top and for the bottom, you would need to drill a hole for the bolt or remove the plastic

 

just got back the harness bar from powder coating but they forgot to send back the upper hoop bracket so i couldnt install it. but here are some photos.



photo of the welds and eye bolts that it uses


straight on view of the harness bar


the speedware logo.. but of course when it gets released by sparco .. it will have the sparco logo.

when i get the upper brackets i will take more pics of it install in my car and ill also let you know when sparco will release the bar or if any information on it. so far all i know speedware wants photos to send to sparco of the bar installed in my car.

 

so is speedware going to come out with it as well?

 

speedware builds the bars and sparco bought out there design.

 

oh ok. well post of pics of you doing the install cause i really want to know how to get those covers off where you can adjust the seatbelt

 

wow i can't wait to see it installed

 

so what exactly does this do besides let rear passengers grab onto during tight cornering maneuvers?

 

its a harness bar. used with harness's the proper way instead of just bolting it into the back seat. i guess it would also add some support on the B pillar . It would not alloy anyone to sit in the backseat because it would be way to dangerous

 

darn... i dont like how it sits too far back and also has to attach to the bottom. I was excited about this too. Guess I will have to fab my own.

 

Prevents your spine from compressing if using harnesses.

 

i agree i kinda like how it looks but it does sit kinda out let me knoe when u fib one chris ill buy one off you
