roll bar to harness question need advise fast

[brownz]

I have a small issue I think... I had a roll bat installed this past weekend and gave the installer and picture of the tiger cage to go off of for the door bars, but in the pic it also had the cross bar down low, this was my mistake I didnt tell him the location that I wanted the cross bar. I just wanted to stiffin the chassis with the roll bar because it a t-top car it is needed. ( also have sub-frame connectors and g-braces).

Now onto the question i will be running a 4-point harness I would like to kno if their will be a serious issue with the position of the cross bar, I will not be doing and real competion racing ith the car just a daily driver and some auto x events here and there,

So what do you guys think? will I be ok to run the harnneses from the cross bar in the current position or would you cut it out and move it up? I really dont want to go threw the process of towing the car back but if it absolutly necc I will

yes i would not mount the shoulder harnesses that low.
the problem is that they will compress your spine if you get in a accident they need to be no lower than 4" below the top of your shoulders (AS per NHRA)
you should cut that out and weld it in much higher

I will be removing the bar and installing it up much higher thanks for the reply, I was my mistake and now its going to cost me.
