v-type harness allowed across back seat bar? so i have had a Y-type bar on my wolfe where each of the two straps loop arond the bar behind the seat, and on the wolfe bar there is another little bar that holds them in place.
on my new bar there is not a way to hold the two straps still directly behind the driver.. and i dont want a strap falling off my shoulder in a wreck so was curious if people used the V-type in this case?
what bothers me about the v is when you are 90% strapped in and the other end falls from hanging around the back bar you are kinda screwed.

I just welded a strap similar to the wolfe and wrapped them on my 10pt. Most weld a tab on the bar to bolt the belts to, some drill a hole and weld an insert in and the harness bolts on there.
You would usually use an individual harness like you have, they come new with the ends to bolt them on or you take the ends off and wrap them like the wolfe. V types arent usually used in door cars, plus they are not as strong as individual shoulder belts.
