Are you going to have helmets for your back seat passengers ?

Not safe...I had a 4pt and removeable harness bar in my cobra thinking I'd still be able to take my kids back there. No bueno! Not safe at all...I didn't even try it.

I had this same debate on the Vintage Mustang forum. I think it's overcautious to say if you have a properly fitted roll bar that the rear seat is forever unusable without a helmet. There are several vehicles which come from the factory with roll bars and back seats. To say you can't sit anyone in the back seat with a roll bar means no one with a '67-'70 Shelby can sit in the back seat, no one with any year Bronco, Jeep, Samurai, or Land Rover Defender can sit in the back seat.

Ask Lee how feels to bounce your head off a roll bar.Or ask Mike Romero if was still alive would think twice about drive a car with a roll bar with out a helmet.

Well, if you've ever flipped over a convertible on the street, you'd be happy you had a roll bar like I did.
