Harness mounting stock seats

I've seen some pictures out and about on the interweb and have come across pictures of people installing takata harnesses without a cage or harness bar. I've seen one kid do it with aftermarket brides and another person on stock seats. I've been searching the web and I've come across this http://www.takataracingproducts.com/guide.html. opinions. views. not considering doing it, just wanna get it out there.

You wouldn't have pictures to show why the harness bar is dangerous would you? While I like this solution I feel like it might be just as dangerous since it's putting larger than normal static forces on the seat back.

Also, asside from using the harness bar on the street, would it be ok to use on a track or should you stay away from them completely?

Well in a rollover, with a regular seat belt, your body can slump to the middle of the car. With a harness and no cage, in a rollover, your head gets pushed into your ribcage.
