Default Harness bar/5 pt. harness for C6Z?

Hi all,

I'm looking to install a harness bar and 5 pt. harness on my C6 Z06. Anybody have any recommendations on brand/type, and also where to get it? I know there are a lot of choices for C5's, but I'm not sure what's out there for C6's yet.

Thanks!

Collin

I assume you will be getting it with a camera mount?

I think that's a pretty safe bet

Help me out guys. The C6 Z06 doesn't have "sport" seats and as such no way to properly install shoulder belts. Same problem as a C5 Z06 with stock seats.

Running the shoulder harnesses around the seats is not a proper and safe install. Not a straight pull.

Sport seats in the C5 allow proper routing. What are you doing to address this problem?

Unfortunately there isn't much you can do but replace the seats. I had replaced my C5 Z06 seats with the Caravaggio race seats. If you stay with the stock seats make sure you order this bar with the belt locaters on it (not very wide) and order your shoulder belts with a sewn in sternum strap

Normaly I would have recommended Hardbar but they seemed to have vanished from the face of the Earth.

That's what I was initially looking for as well, but haven't been able to find anything.
