Default bracket for attaching shoulder harness to rollbar

Who makes or sells the brackets for attaching the shoulder harness to the rollbar? Is there one bracket that is better than another or recamended?

If Finishline doesn't show one on the web site (http://www.cobraaccessories.com), give Enzo a call. I think he's got 'em.

I believe that I have heard that having the shoulder mounts on the roll bar is too high for proper safety. The shoulder harness mounts should come from well below the shoulders on the driver.

Default Rollbar Mount

Mounting the shoulder belts depends on your car. Some cars have a frame member running behind your shoulders to mount the harness to. Just make sure you engage the threads through a bolt. Don't just tap the sheetmetal (you'll only have 1/8" for threads).

When in doubt go to the rollbar, it's not that high. Cost around $175??
The rollbar mounts are sold by:

Those shoulder belt mounts that attach to the roll bar look like a real hazard to the cranium to me.
