Harness bar
« on: September 25, 2016, 08:29:11 AM »
Already had a quick Google and got no results. Does anywhere sell a harness bar for the 126 or is it one of those special made items you've to get built yourself?

The centre bar the harness attaches to on a roll cage gadge.
I got in contact with a guy who makes them for seicentos and think he's going to make me one if anyone else is looking one.

 Agree with Gadge. You should have some rear anchor points for the rear belts, you could just use those.

If you're putting buckets in you may aswell get a full cage made, can't cost too much :P If you aren't using buckets just mount them on the existing rear seat belt mounts, and try and run headrests to keep the belts from sliding down :) My dad's been running his belts like this on his Escort for 5/6 years with no problems  :D

Mine didn't have rear belts fitted, but the points were still welded in from the factory. Sounds interesting though!
