i too am looking for an option that doesnt include the typical 3 pt conversion that "flaps in the wind" as JR put it, and doesnt require a bar that my kids will be eating if in a crash. there HAS to be another option, i just cant find one.

They guys at the Roadster Shop mounted the harness behind the driver seat to the floor. It still allows the rear seat to be used. This method is frowned upon for safety reasons but I have to believe it is better than just running lap belts. Thoughts?

There is another picture further down.

I pm'd the roadster shop guys and asked about this, but they never replied.

I was hoping for them to chime in.

I am leaning toward this method. Anybody have any more ideas?
