There is a company that makes them for the SRT-4. There is absolutely no difference between the seatbelts in an SRT and a neon so I don't see why this harness bar wouldn't work in your car SXXXT:

Great company, I just got my charge pipe from them.

Yes my dear, the seatbelts are different. The ones from my stock Neon seats were bent different than the "Viper" belts. That's why I had to order one from the dealer.

That won't have anything to do with installing a harness bar from B pillar to B pillar. The only difference is where the reciever sits on the seat. :) Which doesn't affect the harness bar installation since you won't be using the reciever.

Yeah wheres all these after pictures?!

sorry guys for the lack of responses.. been fighting with the car

this weekend i should have the stereo and most of the interior back to the car..

we ran into a few problems with the car becuase when we painted all the door jams the paint came out all most PINKish purple.. so we had to redo all these items and next week the actual car will be painted..

i ended up taking out about 99% of all the black suede in the car and prep and primed it for paint and then got everything painted a high metallic silver.. looks pretty good.. ill post up some pics this weekend..

btw.. we arleady got a new paint.. its nice.. NOT PINK OR PURPLE.. lol..

Wow car looks really nice. Can't wait to see the finish product. Will your seats even fit in there without hitting the back of the sub?
