ORIGINAL: DIVER8374

i already have the subframe connectors welded into my car. i am planning on takeing the car to the strip every now and then to see what it can do, I am looking at the roll bar for the safety factory and I also want to install 5pt seat belts in it, and everything i have researched says the you need a cage (at least 4pt) to safetly install a set of 5pt belts. The back seats are and will never be used for passengers so i an not worried about acess to the rear seats. I am just wondering what i am lookiing at for cost and if it is too much of a pain in the but to install myself, and if so how much it might cost to be installed bt a pro.

for what its worth, I was quoted $95 per point for a roll bar fabricated and installed by one local high performance shop. And if I bought a kit bar, they would install it for $65 per hour. I would get at least a 6 point bar even if you only bolt it in as the 4 point bar can easily be collasped in a collision as it has no trianglulation in it.
