What pictures do you want?

I would love to see how people welded/bolted the plates to the car. Any shots of that would be helpful.

Calm down, it's installed in both pictures.

With lots of tears and cuts In all seriousness though, it was pretty straight forward. Remove rear interior, remove front seats, pull back carpet, slide in, install and put everything back.

Hello Jake,
I honestly can't see crap besides the little window above my X. It's enough to see cop lights, I've had experience with that.

I don't get how much more I can answer besides it's installed. Like everyone said, it's just the angle

I had my friend's shop weld in the X for me.

Mine is the full cage, but the roll bar mounting points are the same as the main hoop.

Have you run into any tech issues with the cage? I noticed you're also in ST2.

Thanks!

No, the Autopower cage is NASA and SCCA legal. The diagonal bar and harness bar intersect per the rules, the number of bends in each bar complies, and the bolted area are the correct size and have the correct number of bolts. The roll bar footer and the door bars are welded in so it is not a simple "bolt-in" even though it is called one. The footer requires you to build a plinth box to fill in the triangular gaps on the sides due to the curvature of the leading edge of the rear seat base. The cage is 1.75" tube which is larger than required for the car's weight. The only issue (not really an issue) is that I have a Sparco Ergo XL and it is absolutely the largest seat you can fit in the car with the cage and you have to eliminate the slider. I'm 6'2" 225lbs and my wife is 5'3" so not having a slider requires a significant back pad. She runs the car in TT2.

Even with the diagonal bar being at an angle as it intersects the harness bar? (I have the 4pt in my car now). I've been told by NASA guys it wont pass if I turn it into the full cage.
