Default C4 Harness Bar

I'm looking at harness bars for my 96. I like the Hardbar unit for the most part but it looks like the mounting location places it too high for the harness to pass through a racing seat slot.

I would like the ability to run a 5 point harness with my FX1 seat. Anyone have any experience or suggestions on this application?

Thanks

I ran a Hardbar before installing the 6pt rollbar.

Held me in great

You actually want the harness mounts a little higher that way your spine won't get compressed in a crash.

You ran the harness through the slots in a racing seat?

Stock seat in my case, but I've known others that have done it.

Higher is better, than too low.

I hope your not too tall, the harness bar prevents the seat from going all the way back.
