Robispec Harness Bar Install

FireDan50

Just thought I'd share my install and review of Robispec's bar. Taking out all the plastic pieces from the trunk to middle of the car (side sills) was a pain in the butt, but putting the bar in was super easy. Robispec's piece fit like a glove and was made very well. You can definitely tell the difference in strength of this bar over the OEM one. The powder coating was awesome and I would totally recommend this bar to anyone.

Do you have any more info for your harness install? What parts you used, etc?

The harnesses are Takata Drift II clip-in. I used Rennline harness mounts; one side installed on the seat belt anchor point and other on the provided mounting point on the seat brackets I have. Only thing I don't like about it is that because they're not mounted the same distances, one side of the waist harness is a little longer than the other when tightened. I don't think its a safety concern, just a pet peeve and it not being symmetrical; hope that makes sense.

Harness Mount - Door Side-Rennline, Inc.

This pic shows the "tunnel-side" mounting location where I installed the Rennline harness mount with the OEM seat belt buckle, so I can use either the harnesses or the regular seat belt.



Hope that helps. Post up if anyone has any other suggestions/input/concerns. I'm by no means a professional installer/modifier and always looking to learn and also help out by providing info on stuff like this.

Thanks for the reply. It will help for when I get aftermarket seats.

How did you get a hold of RobiSpec? I PM'd him on the forum as well as e-mailed him through his site and never heard anything back. It's been over a month.

that looks like a log distance from the bar to your shoulders... also, the angle looks a little low.

Its the angle of the camera and slack in the harness straps making it look like that. I've seen requirements regarding angle aspect in regards to the shoulder straps, but not length....anyone have more info on that? I don't think a few inches in length would make a difference as long as the harnesses are tightened properly when worn and take out all the slack.

angle should be 90 degrees to your spine at your shoulders..

figure even good webbing can stretch up to 20%..
