Stock seats with custom harness?

Has anyone had a 4 or 5 point harness installed with their stock seats? I know that switching seats deals with all the sensors and comfort levels, etc. Wonder if a roll cage is needed or if they were secured another way? any pics or guys that have done this, please share!

You can use a harness bar. Sorry, you'll have to search that one out for pics. I don't use one.

yeah as soon as you said this I saw one. Guessing a 4-point would only work best with the stock seats, but what about no slots by the head rest? Would it be safe to run them around the head rest?

I run mine around the head rest. I've heard it was illegal but have never been told that by an official. You can also run then through the head rest. Both belts fit. I also run a point. Nhra rules state that when you use the stock seat the crotch belt can come up around the front of the seat. So it's legal.

im confused. You run the 4 or 5-point? Also, what do the lower belts attach to? Do you still have your stock seat belt in for those other times and just push the harness off to the sides or do you rock it always?

Sorry. I'm on the phone so what's getting typed is suspect at best. I run a 5 point Simpson Harness. The lap belts and crotch belts go through a bracket bolted through the floor.

I use the stock belt all the time except the track. The harness hangs off the cage and the lap belts are on the back seat floor.

I think it's illegal to street drive in the harness.

You can run a five or six point harness with stock seats and the harness bar.
