Default Cross bar for Harness

Does anyone make a bolt in cross bar for mounting harnesses for the front seat?

I see the harnesses on a few sites, but the "v" bars behind the seat seem like they would make installing impossible.

Thanks,

I like the idea, a lot of people may just want to keep the factory cage, but have the safety of a 4 point harness. Definately a good suggestion in my opinion.

I have seen those cross bars on Rhinos, but not for the Teryx yet.

Exclamation

WE have several cage manufacturers on here. Someone want to make some money???

I know there are others out there who want the safety and security of harnesses for the front seat.

Thanks,

Am I missing something here. Can't the harnesses simply be mounted to a common bolt drilled thru the original crossbar.

When I put my harnesses in, I just drilled thru the existing vertical steel plate where it meets the pan behind the seat. There is just enough space to get the bolt head in and you can access the nut through the fender well. You have to pull about 4 screws off the top of the plastic cover on the fender well, but it is easy to get your hand in behind after that. It was easy to do and very solid.
