I understand the safety concerns here with running the bar/harnesses w/o a cage.I however would probably do it anyway too.Knock on wood but I cant remember the last time I flipped my car over and crushed in the roof driving.Also Id make sure that rear passengers I never have in my car were always belted in.I guess Id have to see an instance where someones harnesses and bar killed a human to take this matter as seriously as you guys.That or I have too much confidence in my ability to be a responsible daily driver.Im shy of 23 and have been in 3 accidents by the way 1 in which I was driving and got T-boned.

I agree with you, ask a simple question and get the f*cking 3rd degree
Like its an everyday thing to have a roll over or people don’t die in cars without a harness bar
Anyways...I think the M1 harness bar is pretty good, you should go check it out
and I always have people in the rear with my harness bar....If i get hit or any of my friends get hurt or die in the rear...tuff sh*t, life goes on
Now I have a question to everyone that seems to care about safety so much.
What would you say if the front passenger die and everyone in the rear seats live because of the harness bar was there..."like a side impact"

Well theres chance in everything.. if the cars rolled period i doubt the fact that i have harnesses (and the chance that they would hold me down n snap my kneck) would kill me. And im pretty sure the rear seatbelts would stop people from colliding into the harness bar? I mean if any car is rolled the chances of dieing is high, but dont think the chances would be that greatly increased if i have harnesses n a harness bar. Then again like someone else said people dont exactly roll evos with harnesses n harness bars everyday lol.. But if for some crazy chance that theres a cold day in hell, and i have harnesses and a harness bar, i roll it, and everyone in the car dies because the harnessed held the two front people in place n there kneck snapped, and the rear passangers died because of the harness bar, you can tell me you told me so.. at the funeral that is..

Its just the harness bar is coming first in this case..
Now with the GSC are there any ones that come with teh camera mount attachment? Same with sparco?
AND im wondering which most people go with, for reliablity and everything, Also im still going to be using my back seats

Next off, no I don't believe GSC or Sparco offer a camera mount for their harness bars/roll cages. I do however know a company that does... DG Industries carries harness bars for a variety of makes and models (including the EVO). They also sell a very nice camera mount that is compatible with all their products.
my friend... you sound young, rich, and very naive.

Why Thank you
Its funny how young kids with evos fall into that "rich" sterotype. Trust me if i was rich.. I wouldnt be driving n evo. Id be in an M3, or a 6series. Were actually very middle class.. in a very normal neighborhood, with a 3 bedroom house.. on a 1/4 acre lot lol.. trust me.. were not rich. but thanks for the compliment anyhow

It's your choice, obviously. Not to sound callous, but I don't really care what people who I will never meet do for their safety. Run the risks if you want, but at least don't be ignorant about it. In a rollover with a harness and no roll bar, it is essentially guaranteed that your neck will break, and you will die. Think about it for a second - if the roof crushes, you're completely held against your seat, and that force will be pushed squarely on your head/neck.

I very much understand that its pretty much a garunteed death, thats why ill wait for a cage or roll bar to get the harnesses n bar.
