No, I hear you & I understand what your saying...just that the modification to the vehicle ruins the vehicle in my eyes & many others & so for me...like if I wanted to buy a WDX...or a 1913 Stanley Steamer...the shoulder belt devalues either one of those vehicles the same amount & neither is any less prone to collision. If any...I'd say the PW with hydraulic brakes is less likely to be in a collision as you've described.
So for me, If I feel the only safe way to drive a vehicle is to preform modifications that I'd deem unsightly & not in character with the rest of the vehicle...I'd just go buy myself a new Jeep with all the doodads & call it a day.
That's my thoughts anyway...& believe me Greg...I attend a lot of car shows & I've yet to see a shoulder belt on a high caliber vehicle of any kind.
I'm not saying it's not done but I'd be willing to place a wager that if you go over to Jay Leno's...I'm betting you'll find no shoulder belts in non equipped cars/trucks.
In the grand scheme of things...you're more likely to hurt yourself in a bathtub than a none seat belt equipped PW....me thinks.
