Hi all,
I'm looking for a bolt-in roll bar that I can use for Time Trials, but be able to remove for autox. I understand that Autpower makes one for the 914. Does anyone have any experience with them? I'd be looking at a roll bar that mounts to the rocker sills and to the B-pillar seat belt anchors. With an additional diagonal brace for GCR legality (so I can wear my harness at TT events). Pros? Cons? Good? Bad? Ugly?.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) Thanks! -Josh2 |

So how do you bolt the "bolt in" cages in? Don't laugh. I see that the feet of the cage just has bolt holes. So do you have to cut open the long so you can get nuts underneath? Or weld in a scab plate with nuts welded to the backside (and of course large enough holes in the longs for the nuts to pass through for a flush fit).
