Default Harneses on rear seat??

So I just had a thought
Is there any way you could make fold down seats with a 5 point harness

I have no real idea how it would work and still be safe
Maybe use 2 passenger side grand Cherokee rear seats because there more like buckets and they should still fit

The only reason I thought about making this is to have people in the back and then you could fold down the seats for room for gear

I realize you need to have a bar behind the seats to secure the harness but you should be able to make it removable with bolts and still have it safe

I was just wondering if anyone else has ever thought of anything like this or done this before

Imo harnesses are extremely unsafe without a rollcage. You do both or none. If you roll without a cage and the roof is going to crush the last thing you want is to be stuck sitting upright. But if you roll with a cage the last thing you want is your head to be hitting rollbar tubing like a pinball machine.

There will defiantly be a role cage inside that's already happening

And I'm sure there is some kind of big head rest you could make so your head would never contact the bar behind you

How about something like this from rock hard 4x4.
