The first and second arms configured to couple to a roll cage. A first end may include a first recessed portion and a first aperture. A third end may include a second recessed portion and a second aperture. The first and third ends may contact each other and be secured together via a first fastener that passes through the first aperture and the second aperture. Further, the first recessed portion and the second recessed portion may receive a second fastener therebetween that may receive a latch plate of a safety belt or safety harness to maintain it in an upward position. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A system comprising: one or more first harness couplers that attach to an interior frame of a vehicle, the first harness coupler comprising: a first arm, the first arm comprising a first recessed portion and a first aperture; a second arm, the second arm comprising a second recessed portion and a second aperture; a first fastener that secures the first arm to the second arm; a second fastener positioned between the first recessed portion and the second recessed portion, wherein the second fastener receives first latch plates of a safety harness; one or more second harness couplers that attach to an interior surface of the vehicle and receive second latch plates of the safety harness, the second harness coupler comprising: a plate with an upper surface and a lower surface; a second plate fastener; an adhesive layer coupled to the lower surface; and a release liner releasably adhered to the adhesive layer. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first arm comprises a first end and a second end, the first end comprises the first recessed portion and the first aperture. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the second arm comprises a third end and a fourth end, the third end comprising the second recessed portion and the second aperture. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first harness coupler comprises an aluminum material. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first harness coupler comprises a plastic material. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first recessed portion and the second recessed portion, when adjacent to each other, create a circular aperture that receives the second fastener therein. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first recessed portion and the second recessed portion, when adjacent to each other, create a square-shaped recession that receives the second fastener therein. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first fastener comprises a bolt and nut. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the second fastener comprises a magnet. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the plate comprises a first plate aperture with a first recessed ledge and a second plate aperture with a second recessed ledge. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, further comprising a first plate fastener that couples the second harness coupler to the vehicle via the first plate aperture and the second plate aperture. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The system of claim 11, wherein the first plate fastener comprises screws. ### Claim 13 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, wherein the plate comprises a second coupler aperture interposed between the first plate aperture and the second plate aperture, wherein the second plate fastener is positioned. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The system of claim 13, wherein the second plate fastener is positioned in the second coupler aperture to receive the second latch plates of the safety harness. ### Claim 15 A system comprising: one or more first harness couplers that attach to a frame of a vehicle, the first harness coupler comprising: a first arm, the first arm comprising a first end and a second end, the first end comprising a first recessed portion and a first aperture;
