Black '80-'82 seats would look so much better then Sparco seats.

I have seen some guys running 4 or 5 point harnesses, with there racing seats or even stock seats for that matter. but it doesn't look like they have any kind of roll bar for them to attach to. just wondering if it is possible to install a 4 point or 5 point harness without a roll bar! thanks again.
