Default Attatching harnesses

I'm getting some seats...and I'm going to have to rock out with the stock seat belt for a while.

However, I was wondering if anyone has ever attatched harnesses to the stock roll bar?

It seems like you should be able to with some drilling. Then just cut a slit in the plastic so the harness can feed thru it.

If not...I'll have to set my sights on a roll bar at some point soon.

i'm getting ready to install harness also. here's the post that i've been reading.

it's not a good idea to use harness unless you have some kind of head/neck restraint system. if you get into a high speed collision, your head will move forward and your body remains still and you can guess what will happen. it's better to use the oem 3-point harness if you're not going to use a HNR system.

you need some thing like this..

If you watch Top Gear you have seen these before...


SCHROTH street legal harness belts are unique in their ability to be installed to factory provided mounting points along with the factory provided seat belts. SCHROTH harness belts meet all certification requirements by the German TÜV, ECE-R 16.04 and US-DOT FMVSS 209 for use on public roads. Each belt comes with complete installation and operating instructions. If your vehicle is listed in the included Vehicle Reference List the installation has been tested and appoved with the stock seat or the listed aftermarket seats.

SCHROTH QuickFit harnessbelts have the make and model of the applicable car printed on the tail strap label.

Unlike most other aftermarket harness belts, most SCHROTH street legal harness belts have a unique disconnect feature between the front part of the harness and the rear tail strap. When you are not using the SCHROTH street legal harness belts, they can be stored out of the way allowing complete access for all passengers and full use of all factory seat belts.


The patented SCHROTH asm® system offers an unique safety advantage for 4-point harnesses. asm® is the acronym for anti submarining. The risk to submarine (sliding underneath the lap belt), a well known phenomenon during frontal impacts, is significantly reduced by the asm® safety system. The energy converter is located in the inboard shoulder belt. Therefore make sure you purchase left and/or right harnesses. Severe injuries or death are possible using 4-point harnesses without the SCHROTH asm® safety system or an anti-sub strap. SCHROTH harnesses designed for use on public roads (FE push button models) or those likely to be used as 4-points come with the asm® safety system. The performance of the SCHROTH asm® safety system has also been positively tested in conjunction with airbags.

Current Head And Neck Supports (HANS®) provide further reduction of head deceleration and neck bending.

The asm® system on all SCHROTH Rallye and QuickFit belts - excluding the new QuickFit Pro - is not compatible the with HANS®. Only belts having a center RFR Cam lock can be used with HANS®.

We recommend that only non asm® belts be used in competition harnessbelts.

Racing harnesses without asm® must be worn with an anti-sub strap!
