I don't think you'll find one cheaper anywhere.

Cross bars are not very common, so I doubt you will find one super cheap.

Do you really need something like that? Unless you are tracking the car with 600+ HP I doubt you will twist the middle of the car.

Ummmm, that bar goes along the FLOOR, in other words that'd be a VERY DANGEROUS place to mount a harness.

Rear shock tower braces are not designed to take those sorts of loads and it would be very dangerous to mount a harness to it. Besides, it's too far back, so harness stretch becomes an issue.

The ONLY safe way to use a harness is to have it mounted to a roll bar or cage, and have it running through harness slots in a seat (ie not the stock seat, but a racing seat).
