make a seat back, I drove around for like 2 years without one, I wouldn't do it again. If you get in a muilt hit crash, and the seat bends a little (its going to) and you get loose in the harnesses, there going to beat you up bad. And could get under bones, and joints and stuff and really hurt,cut,rip into you bad.

my cars not even that fast, like high 120s street car. I thought the seat was stiff. 1st drive after the seats fixed back, hit and and pull some gears, feels like a different car. Your way more soild in the car, dont even realize the seat moves back. Its safer, and I fell alot better for controlling the car, getting crossed up and sideways rolling burnouts. You get better input to keep the car strait.

One guy posted back on the 2nd page about a bolt-on brace, that goes from the seat to the rollbar. Would that be a custom thing or is that a common bracket, that I can buy?

To bring this back up, could anybody explain how the bottom(black) bracket bolts on? I think I know, but it doesn't seem to fit properly. Any advice on this?
