Hello, i recently got into an accident in my 2008 Nissan 350z roadsters, and the airbags deployed. From what I've seen to get new airbags, and to get them working again is really expensive. I was wondering if it was possible to just get some racing seats, a 4 (or more whatever works to be honest) point harness, a racing wheel, and just cosmetically patch up the passenger side airbag. From what I've seen most people use a harness bar, which is attached to the back pillar, and the floor, but you obviously cant attach the seat belt to the roaster side pillar since it is a convertible, and doesn't have one. Do they sell harnesses for roadsters that attach to a different point? or can i just go without a harness, and in that case where would i attach the belts to? Also i do not want to have to weld/make any of it myself, and i do not want to have to install a cage. Any help would be very appreciated!
Race seats and harnesses hold your torso upright. In the event of a rollover, there's a high likelihood your head (or that of your passenger) comes in contact with the ground and a basal skull fracture results. That kind of lethal injury is more probable with that combo. The standard safety equipment is better for the ZR.

Bro with how many g's are happening when rolling you're not going to be able to duck or move anyways, im not worried about rolling over, if that **** happens a normal seatbelt or a racing harness arent going to make a difference
keyword in his post "without using a harness bar, while i on the other hand want to know if there is a harness bar for the roadster so that doesn't really help.

Maybe you're not worried about a rollover, but they do happen. This one was a local accident and I sold some parts to the owner (pictured on the left) to repair his ZR. He was able to duck to the side during a slow roll down a creek bed. That wouldn't have been possible with a racing seat and harness holding him upright. The driver was very lucky to have escaped serious injury.
