Default what harness bar is everyone running in their sol?

The only one I can seem to find online is the damn universal one off of ebay, and I don't trust that ****, but i guess it's better than having nothing and messing up your spine in an accident. So what has anyone else used?

this is the one I was talking about.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-97...Q5fAccessories


I mean, there are pics of it IN a sol, but damn, it looks better in the ****ing 4DR SEBRING than it does the sol. IDK, I just want to know I wont kill myself if I get hit.

Metal is metal, Just because it's listed on ebay doesn't mean it's instantly going to break on installation. If you're really that concerned, just check the welds, that's the only thing to be concerned about.

you can have people make roll cages. im guessing wouldnt be much of a cage though. maybe just a box of bars in the cabin.

Yep. Also, Pdiddy - A harness bar alone will not be very safe. To safely run a 5/6 point harness, you'd honestly need to get a proper cage, half cage, or at least a roll bar as well. Not to mention proper seats.

Most serious drivers don't recommend 4 point harnesses due to "submarine" issues. When looking at seats and harnesses, you can't look at one individual piece - the whole system (seat, harness, harness mount/cage, helmet if applicable) all need to be considered. It's a package deal, lacking or an improper selection on any one of those components can potentially have big consequences.
