No they don't

The big issue with fixing harnesses to rear seat belt points is that in a front end crash, you risk badly damaging your spine because you, the seat and the harness can/do pivot forwards & down (think what would happen if the flimsy fibreglass seat back snapped!).

MSA (Blue Book, Part K) say that the rear harness straps are prefered at an angle of +/- 10 degrees from horizontal, down to a max of 45 degrees. So your car would be unlikely to pass scrutineering if you mount to the rear seat belt points anyway, and you won't get to a nice shallow angle without a harness bar.

Personally i took the decision that i'd rather be as safe as possible, and risk having a cage that needs re-certifying, than risk a front end impact that crushes my spine.

A poorly fitted harness will be a lot more damaging than a standard seatbelt!

It needs to be more like this:

This looks awesome by the way. I always have a soft sport for track cars.

You should be able to get a harness bar welded on to your original cage dude for not very much :)

thing is i wouldn't just want it welded on. id like to be able to remove the bar ( if needed me ) like the rest of the cage.

ill have to get some quotes, ill ask dean this weekend as i am off up to him :) he is adjusting the bucket seat forward as my little legs struggle to reach the pedals :p

Really glad this went to a good home! We still sorting that seat frame tomorrow? Also if you want the roll cage adding too let me know I've done a few including my mates type r turbo where it ran a single diagonal bar in the rear and I converted it too a cross bar with proper harness bars! It's now perfect and looks loads better! I'll talk to you tomorrow :-)
