bolt in half roll cage

[steve_k]

right then i'm on the look out for info regarding my tech-1 track toy build.

what i would like to know is there any where i can get a bolt in half roll cage that can be fitted without having to remove/cut into the rear bench/seat?.

the reason i'm asking is because i'm keeping the car road legal & i intend on using it a bit more than my tech-2 sport.

so any body have the info i'm after?.

any link's to places that might be able to help me with this?

[steve_k]

the only reason i mention not removing the seat or cutting into it is so i can still use the back seat if i have to.

That's called a showcage which you're after then?

[steve_k]

that or i might just go for a proper weld in job.

got any links to places that do them?

bmwalpinac2 you mention show cages do you know where i could get one from?

by show cage i mean like the one's that dimma used to sell for the pug 205.

come on some one on here must know what i mean & where to get them from.

any one?????

[ImysE30]

Hottuning were about to make one, try contacting them and see how much it's going to cost

[steve_k]

i'll give that a go & see what they say.

Don't use a show cage or a half cage. If it comes to the point where you actually do crash, they will cause you more harm than not having one at all.

[steve_k]

cheers for that zaust.

when i mentioned the show casge that was meant for my tech-2 sport (so just for looks).

i've been thinking about a full cage for the tech-1 track toy.

had a look on demon tweaks last night & they seem to do some good one's so i might be going for one of them.

please avoid the show cage. half cage is 100 times better than that but better still a full cage. cant you just get a bolt/weld in cage and fit/cut the seats to go around it accordingly?

[oze30]

just remove the seats. you can't use them if you have a cage in anyways.

[steve_k]

well thanks for the replys guy's.

one more thing though.......i've seen a few DIMMA show cages for the saxo/pug 205 & i was just wondering if they can be made to fit in an e30?

i must point out that this is for the sport in my sig as i know these types of cages can be taken out pretty quickly.

just a thought so don't take the pee pee as i would like to know.

when you get the final bill then please let me know how much it comes to.

also who are you getting it made by?

[LeonNewton]

Swane engeneering in Hoylake. If you pm me then I will let you know. Only because my memery is shot. All I need to do is give him my car fir a day but working 6 days a week makes it hard. Realy hope to have it in by the 8th.

Safety devices to a half or full cage with removable cross bars so you can climb in the back easy and has relavent certs. A bolt in one is easier to fit but welded in one looks nice and hugs the pillers closer and adds bit more to structual strength of the shell and you can keep rear seats typically.

I have a full saftey devices cage for sale. 6 point and you can remove the rear diagonal and door bars. It will fit a 2door sunroof model car. £500 luton bedfordshire
