I am not really worried about crash saftey. I am more or less worried about passenger safety. I don't know munch about 4 or 5 point harnesses. But I do know if you mount them wrong your better with out one. I also know that A harness is not really a fit all belt. When you mount one you mount it for you.
I am worried about passnegers in this part. I have firends and family ranging from 5 and a half feet to 6 and a half feet. 130lbs to over 300. That don't include woman that might be a future girl friends. How would I mount a harness for all sorts of people. I talked to a buddy about how the off road truck team he works for solves this. They take the shoulder belts and mount them to were the rear seat bolts are on the floor. I just do not know how safe that is. I read on schroth you can do that if you have a bar at the 20 degree angle from the shoulders. But like I said I know a lot of people different sizes. So that angle will be different for every one.
The only thing I have come up with is a normal 3 point belt you find in a normal car. I have the skill to make the brackets I would need. I might also do that for me. I plan on have making a double duty slc. Then I could also mount a slider for both seats. I would just swap put the harness and racing seat when not needed.
Now for the Plates. Were are you guys mounting your front plate? When I get the slc I plan on getting hobbyist plates for one reason a one time buy. nothing after that. The only down part is there green and yellow. I like the colors on a sunday in the fall. Also they give you two plates I Think.
I am running no front plate now on a bright blue loud car and have had no problems. But I think with the SLC there might be problems. Its not really a car that blends in up here. It might blend in LA. Just not here in the Midwest. I am all ready waiting to get pulled over when ever I buy and build one.
