The R56 Harness Bar is In!

Phil & Jeff @ Burkebuilt have sorted a great solution for our R56!  Our approach is similar yet simplified over the Brey Krause solution for the 1st Gen MINI.  We've added an additional rearward mounting point.  This bar is seriously solid.

Our bar will unbolt easily enough for quick removal after the track day.  

Here are some of the key features:
  • Bolt-in - no mods neccesary
  • Loads into 5 solid locations onto the chassis
  • Takes wrap around style shoulder belts with guides
  • Fire extinguisher mounting plate
  • Almost full seat travel (less 1")
  • Rear seat bottom can be installed
  • Works with stock seat
  • DOM tubing
More info to come as we continue to finalize this complete kit.  Contact us if you are interested.

We are fitting the same harness that we've developed for the Lotus Elise/Exige: Schroth Profi II with ASM.  This HANs compliant harness can safely be run as a 4pt solution allowing you to use your stock seats.  This can be upgraded to 5 or 6pt if you choose to run a race seat.
