Default 4 point harnesses for an R

I'm thinking about putting harnesses in before tracking it next week.
I know all the arguments about 6 points being better, but 4 is enough. Just want to feel (even) more connected as much as anything, and might have nervous passengers!

What do I need in terms of bars etc and what is recommended make?
Thanks in advance...

I had a custom 2 point Harness bar made for my European delivery.
It was stuck in customs too long so I never installed it.

It just mounts behind the seats with the single purpose of mountain the harnesses without losing the rear storage space. Basically just a horizontal bar AC rose the rear seats. Super simple install and removal.

I can send a picture if you like, it's flat black.

Thanks - if you have a pic that would be great. I guess that means I won't get it made in the next few days though...is there any 'off the shelf' alternative, even if I lost some of the rear space in the meantime?

Can you post some pics of the Design, Mr. TRAKCAR? Trying to figure out the best option to mount harnesses.

Disappointed with the GMG harness bar. Advertised that you are able to move the seat all the way back and that's not the case. pretty big deal for my 6'7" frame. You lose either an inch of legroom or an inch of headroom to keep the LWB off the bar. Irrelevant for 99.9% of the population, but not me!



Thanks.

I envisioned a very simple hoop, just for harnesses allowing for luggage.
Mrs Trakcar came with me to Europe and the frunk (Custom Porsche Rimowa fitment) and all space behind the seats were completely full.

The mounting points are the same as the 4 point roll bar, except only 2 points.

Its straight forward:

See post 14, its basically just a low, front half of a typical roll bar. The bottom legs are identical as in that photo.
