roll cage for mk 3 fez

Postby dangermouse on Tue Sep 02, 2008 1:27 pm

sorry if this is in the wrong section but i wasnt too sure where to post it.

im after a roll cage for a mk3 fiesta, preferably bolt in, but not a show cage, one that will save me in an accident.
i wondered if anyone knew of any companies that supply and maybe fit cages into cars and what the going rate is?

i do have a sun roof , will this cause any issues? i have seen an OMP cage from demon tweeks but thats about it, please help

i suppose a 4 hour round trip will be worth it for a decent roll cage lol

I have the OMP one in mine and have no issues with the sunroof.

Did have to cut some of the dash away though!

Yes i have the full cage.
Had to cut into the dash an inch or so!

Doesnt bother me personaly as its a track car but wouldnt look so good on a show car!

Im led to believe that OMP changed design slightly and the older ones never needed the dash cutting.
