Rollcage anyone?!

Sold for £400 to some poor fellow who didnt think to research the manufacturer. Had he done so hed have seen that this used (and bodged) part was sold for approaching the cost of a new part, perhaps more after youve allowed for the cost of a fitting kit. Even if the item was otherwise fit theyve still paid greatly over the odds... No one from here I hope?

As all bolt in kits go to the floor before the dash, does anyone have any pics or experience of a full weld in product in a 944? I am going to be starting a new project involving a cage and I want a full custom weld in job, but I wonder how/where the front tie in when they go through the firewall. I know in some all out race cars they tie in with the front struts but I'm not sure how accessible this is on a car that will still need to be road registered?

On a UK car I haven't seen any designs that go through the firewall as that wouldn't pass the regulations for many a race series. Likewise the PCGB club championship rules reflect the norm here in that the rear of the cage doesn't go further back then the rear load deck. The shortness front and rear is pretty sensible because it leaves a lot of crumple zones intact. The SD cages ISTR both bolt in and weld in mount on the door sill via a big spreader plate. Loads of pictures of my race car scattered around here and of course on my photobucket account.

Neil the "tablecloth" 944 that EMC built had the front strutrs tied into the cage.
