I've voted and it looks unanimous. Just repeating peoples thoughts, but for the sake of dash out and some trimming, you're going that far to put a cage in and it's alot of money, just do it right.

I'd be interested in one for mine, but it needs to get moving first! :lol:

secla wrote:I wouldnt say a rollcage is that safe in a road car. Great for roll over protection but you get in a normal prang and your not wearing a helmet you will probably do yourself more damage than it not bring there.

Personally id never have one on anything but a track car
nor me

But then why do you need a cage if it's not a track car ;)

correct again which is why i don't really think there will be enough interest to justify making them, but we shall see how it goes, keep it up in an area where its visible and not missed by people who dont visit daily and see how many numbers it attracts. so far its going the way i want it to go with anybody interested wanting a proper cage rather than a dash friendly which i would not be interested in making. 10 would be lovely but i honestly cant see that happening .

so... is it really a bad idea just to have a roll-over type thing behind the front seats?

It needs explaining for me to understand the pros & cons.

Hope I'm not the only one thinking this :lol:

It wouldnt really do anything. And it would be something extra to hit your face on in the event of a crash.

Dash dodgers have to be one of the most pointless things ever imo.If your really need a cage you shouldnt be worrying about having to cut a bit out of the dash.
