I'm not a fan of street cars with "Halo Bar" in fact in most states they are not legal. Also 4 & 5 point restraints are not legal and you are personally liable for the passenger if you don't use DOT approved seat belts.

Here is the main problem. If you get in a car accident and hit your head on the bar there is a pretty good chance your going to end up dead. Of course you can always drive with a helmet on but that get's hot.

Here is what we did in the Mini-Truck







DOT Approved Seat belts from Seatbelt Planet



believe it or not the buckel is the part that makes them DOT approved.



don't forget you need to plan a headrest also to prevent whiplash
