Default Asking for Pics of 996 Cab with DAS bar, GT3 seats and 6pt harness

Gents.
I have a DAS bolt in roll bar and plan to install GT3 seats with a 6pt harness from Shroth.

What I notice with the DAS bar is that the bar behind the seats, the bar is not totally flat. Towards the doors, the bar (behnind the seats) start to curve.
(Pic below).

The Porsche Tequip roll bar is totally flat behind the seats so the harness straps are flat and even.

I'm wondering if there would be any problems with the harness set up in my cab with my DAS bar. I hope I make sense.

Anyone who has the same set up as me, I would appreciate you post some pics of your harness install.


Thanks,

George, you have the perfect setup (and actually better than the Teq bar). We are going to get you setup nicely. Pick a day, bring the swag over to the "Dell garage" and we'll knock this out.

the horizontal bar on the teq roll bar sits very close to the back of the gt3 seats (to close IMO)... that is why the das curves like that... it gives more room for the seats since it does have some flex to it. There will be no prob with your setup and is better than the teq bar as Dell mentioned... no worries.

here is a teq bar in comparo....

Can you share where you got the seats and what you paid for them? They seemed to have recently jumped from being widely available for $2500 a pair to now commanding ~$5000. Thanks
