Im fitting a cage at work to a MK2 golf at the minute and I've cut the roof off.
Only to put a carbon roof on
Does make life easier

I wouldn't say it's under the bonnet given how high it is!
No build thread that I could find these where only photos that had been posted
They go in similarly to a e30 m60 spec however the sump causes issues, just like a m5*/s5* does in a e30 just the other way round!
Most builds I have seen the engine is raised for clearance

Thats why i asked if there was a build thread.
and your right the height of it i bet the sump is sitting on the crossmember.

I wonder if they are transplanting a used cage from a crashed car?
Easier to cut relief flaps on the floor and drop the corners of the cage low enough to get to the top parts.
