Hey guys. I was looking at getting a bar welded into the rear of the car to create a mounting point for two harnesses, and to perhaps increase rigidity.
Am I nuts? Bad Idea?

Eclou has a redline bolt in bar for sale for under 400 bucks which is a heck of a deal. It is a nice bar. I use an autopower bar, but it requires drilling holes in your car for the mounting.

Bolt in bars are not fabricated to withstand the forces related to attaching a harness. If you are going to directly attach the harnes it needs to be a roll bar similar to the type sold by Redlineman at http://www.redlinerennsport.com/SafeguardPage.html

I bought a used Weltmeister (bolt-in) harness bar, with a camera mount attatched for $200. It is stronger than I ever imagined, and has not come loose ever for the 1 year I've owned it.

I have this too... and LOVE it. I had to buy very slightly longer bolts for it. No drilling required, went into the same bolt holes as the rear seat belts would go.

Hmm really? Do you have a picture of yours? Mine mounts much higher up, near where the top of the rear seat part would be. There was a random plastic plug on either side of the C pillars, and when I took that plug out there was already a random bolt just sitting there not holding anything in. So I used those and they worked fine. The bar fits perfectly in that area, and I couldnt get it to fit down lower where the seat belts normally are. I'll see if I can find a picture of mine...
