Default Cross-bar GP is a go!!!

We have dropped the price to $260 each and split the shipping. (instead of $17.50 frt, would be $8.75). And so it does not take away from Brooke's raffle, I will donate $10.00 from each sale to the fund. The GP is set up in the Mall and your also welcome to give me a call if you have any questions.

We are completely satisfied after 8-9 months of use. The bar was easy to install and anchors the 5-point harness at just the right place. The camera mount works great as well....as long as you push the mirror up out of the way! :D Highly recommend the crossbar. :yesnod: :cheers:

What does the Crossbar do?
Does it make the chassis stiffer?
Any pics?
Install estimate?

I'm interested if we can answer the above.
How would a car with a crossbar compare to one without?

Let's say I'm not interested in a 5 pt harness or mounting a camera?
;)

The "Cross-bar" stiffens the upper body section and provides a location to anchor shoulder belts. There is also a free camera mount included with each bar.

There are several pictures on our web site along with more information.

Installation time is usually less than one hour for the first time installer. It can be let in the car full time, because it does not restrict your seat movement or rear visibility.

Check out the web site and give me a call if you have any questions.

Unsolicited endorsement..
If anybody is looking for a harness bar this is a good one. I installed mine a year ago and have seen a lot of other people buy one after they see how it installs and how solid it is. A really good bar at a great price!

To install the Cross-bar only, you do not have to remove the seats.

If you want to install our optional lap belt kit for a harness, you would have to remove the seat.

Give me a call if I can answer any more of your questions.
