5TH GEN Roll Cage

Post by louckie » Mon Jan 29, 2018 3:22 pm

Anyone know of any off the shelf cages in the UK?

Would prefer not to have a dash dodger but either way

America list cage anything from £350 but will NOT post to the UK

Just a shout out to anyone that knows someone who knows someone ect and what my options are

I’ve been quoted £850 I know you can’t put a price on safety ect but I’m not looking to do time attack. Just stiffen the chassis up so I go at it with the angle grinder... and have some decent mounts for my harnesses

It’s not as much a wanted post as it is I’m looking for information

Will a 4G cage fit a 5G what experience people have had trying to get a 5g cage bla bla bla

You could ask 106pete where he got his custom roll cage from and the price. His is a 4th gen, but being you'll have to go custom I doubt it should make much difference to the price.

Mine was over a grand so I’d say £850 is a good price
236bhp and 170ft/lb stock :whistle:

I got a full weld in cage in my lude for 650 at an place near Ormskirk and they did a great job.

You will struggle to get anything in the UK for a prelude as it's not widely supported
