harness bar i honestly cant remember the price... i want to say 400ish? but John Powell also shipped it while he was in the states to save on shipping. Can be gots from PowellRaceshop dot com.

Its not on their website, you have to email them about it, it can be powdercoated in any colors you would like. Install is easy, only pain in the ass is getting the locktite to break from the top mounts, once you get that off, i used a lighter and burned it off, cleaned it the best i could, then put some locktite back on, John gives you the torque specs and hardware to bolt right in. It honestly took maybe a half hour tops, and probably 20 minutes of that was breaking the damn bolts on either side of the top of the seatbelt mount.

I did not buy this bar to run any type of harnesses I bought it to stiffen the car up above the strut mounts. And my god thats exactly what it did. My car has zero body roll now, the only thing that rolls is my taco bell in the seat next to me. Its well worth the money as a show piece, and as a functional piece.

No problem.

Everything ive ordered from John has been a quality part with noticeable improvement in its respected area

spherical control arm bushings - MUST
harness bar - read above
tow hooks - not yet but i know theyll work when/if used
i plan on getting under car rails, and possibly a rear swaybar from him - i currently have a progress bar.
