What are you going to do for seat belt mounts? An "X" between the B pilars will give you strength and a place to hold a shoulder, but it sure makes it impractical for people, even kids, to get in the back seat. I like it.

Seat belt mounts are getting done this week. The owner wants 5 point harness in, so we will see. The main reason for this cage is for the protection of the family, ie kids. We talked about a bar going accross the back of the front seats, but that idea was nixed due to access. The seat saddle will also help in that area.

I'll be interested in seeing how you solve that problem, i'm going nuts here trying to come up with a good solution for a fullsize Cherokee: would be nice to get the kids in the back, but the harness bar will be in the way. Ugh.

What options are there? The "X" cound be built kind of squatty or even more of a low "U" so they could go between the front seats and over the U. Then have the U raise quick, kind of following the contour of the seats again. But then you have kids always crawling over the seats.

Looks great Shawn. Is this gap an optical illusion?
