Default Can anyone recommend someone to install a rollcage?

Preferably in Herts, but Essex would be fine as well.

It's a weld in for a Golf MK2.

Anyone got any suggestions?


Thanks.

If you want one made and welded these people always seem a fair price.

Might fit yours for you no harm in asking.

Or you could try BP grassing to fit one if you already have it.

Dave and carol Robins you can mention my name to them.

Thanks for that, Dave said he couldn't help but the first company did quote, £1400 + Vat. Didn't realise it was going to be this pricey.

I did have a look at that before, but for one there are some parts missing, and I really wanted to go for a fully welded jobby.

Coming off backwards, half way through the craner curve @90MPH last week in the pouring rain made my mind up.

One of the funniest moments of my life was being there while Mark got told off for using the handbrake to get round a corner on the Lotus test track
