guys I was in a bad accident with a friend of mine a few weeks ago and am still recovering. He had a small subaru and it got killed being t-boned only at 30 mph. so I want to install more protection for myself in my 96 celica gt by adding reinforcement cage inside. can it be done???

QUOTE (D-Man @ Sep 3, 2008 - 10:42 AM)  I know that airbags are safty equip... but in my experience, they deploy several seconds too late  but now i drive a Toyota, not an old Ford  I wanted to ask if 4/5 point belts (Correctly installed, With the proper equipment) Would help? (lol, i've got a convertable, if i flip i'm done )couple seconds late?! in most accidents your car stops in less than a second. air bags deploy and contract with in that second. you woulda wrecked/come to a stop and then been wacked in the face after the entire event was over? but as you said it was a FORD = Fix Our Retarded Design :dunno: 4 point harness is doable with a harness bar, and certified belts. All about the correct setup
