Why buy a stand alone harness bar when you can get a MUCH SAFER harness bar attached to a Autopower Race Roll Bar?

These are available for ALL impreza models and for all years. :)

Do the welded cross bar/ harness bar kits come pre-welded or would I need to do that myself?

What is the difference in strength between the weld in cross bar/ harness bar vs. bolt in?

Hi,

Good questions. :)


Do the welded cross bar/ harness bar kits come pre-welded or would I need to do that myself?

With the Autopower Roll Bar product line everything always comes pre engineered, pre welded, pre fabricated and pre painted for you. All you really have to do when the kit arrives is touch up the paint and install it.





What is the difference in strength between the weld in cross bar/ harness bar vs. bolt in?

This I cannot properly answer at this time. I just don't have any real data. Common sense seems to tell me that weld in is always stronger than bolt in.

No, but I plan on upgrading my seat and going with harnesses, but feel safer doing this than just a harness bar since it doesn't come that close to my head.

Is there any pics of these installed? Iam looking to get the one with both cross bars bolt-in in about a month or so. What sucks is you guys are less then 10miles from me but I have to drive 45miles just to get there. :(

mick_the_ginge (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/member.php?u=27646) was nice enough to document the install of his Race Roll bar that he bought from us last year. Thanks Mick! Here are a couple of images from his install that show the mounting points.

Uh Owen... Where is your padding? I'm pretty sure that all of you PDX Tuning guys have the new Dual Density Padding System for your roll bars don't you?

I'll take pics with the padding installed and post them in the next couple of days. Car is at home at the moment.

Sorry, I still haven't taken those pictures yet. It's been nasty out, and the car is sitting warm and happy in my garage.

Well it's about time...

Hi,

People do weld in these kits. I really have no idea how many though.

Just out of simple curiosity, with the bolt in harness bar can you remove the cross bars and still retain use of your back seat? Or would your passengers be in danger of getting brained in a collision? I think that's a reason a lot of people wouldn't spring for a cage.

With all Autopower product you can keep all of your stock seats installed. Still, not a good idea to have folks in the backseat area at all.

What's the purpose of the middle cross (the very short one)?

I also see you don't sell this particular bar anymore on your site.

Hello,

Good question. :)

That bar is what's called, "A Head Restraint Brace." Example of need; imagine a heavy rear impact where the seat back breaks (very common scenario with stock seats), that little brace will / should help catch that headrestraint.

We offer that kit here; http://www.safedrives.com/proddetail.asp?prod=AutopowerRaceRollBar&cat=104
It just does not reflect that brace in the picture from Autopower Industries.
