Does anyone know where I can get one and what the rough cost will be?
my plan is to take my back seats out and have a rear strut brce which my harnesses will fix to...is that going to work?
Is a rear strut brace good for the job, am I right in thinking that they are the same as the front ones but just fix inside the car?

i'd attach the harnesses to the seatbelt mounting plates below the rear seat
not sure if a rear strut brace would be safe enough for them

Nice, have you got any pics?
The PVD chunky one sounds nice! £130 though

Id like to avoid using the seatbelt points if I can cos it just doesnt look as good
Surely if you had say the 100mm Steel PVD brace it would be stong enough to take the harnesses?!
Or would it kink under hard braking? I wouldnt imagine so...

the chunky one is easyer to fit

Cool.
Surely it would survive a side impact as isnt it meant to strengthen the car?
