He is just starting to do bolt in ones (dash dodgers) so I can ask for a price if you wanted but its a slightly diffrent style cage as the main hoop isn't swept back like on mine

I could post up loads of pics of his cages as iv seen a few now but they all look the same in the pics lol

What braces will the cage have, whether it comes with everything need for installation, will it come painted/powder coated? Will rear seats need to be removed?

As much information about it as possible really

I definitely don't want a show cage.

I don't mind if I need to remove the rear seats tbh, was just curious

I would like it to have a rear x brace with bars for harnesses, door bars and for as much of it to be removable as possible when it's not being used on track

That caged car posted above looks awesome, but it would be like an episode of the Krypon Factor to get in/out.

Are these all track cars?

I would not want to be in a road car that had a cage fitted unless I had a helmet on.

Your going to struggle to find that. I wouldn't be putting anyone in the back of a car with a cage near their heads.

Not to put people in, but so the rear seats can remain fitted and not have to be removed. Nobody goes in the back anyway.

Carbon firewall sorts that issue, we keep an eye on the rear cage setups

Right guys , spoke to the chap doing the cages and he is currently finishing a full weld in one then he is going to start o the bolt in ones ,,,, I will update this thread once one of them is finished

Anyone interested in full weld in ones please send me a pm as this is what he prefers to do as he build rally cars for a living and likes having the cars in the workshop

I found these, think it's a Cusco 6pt for four passengers (keeps rear seats).
