1/2 cage pics

[Mike Roberts]

Installed ready for this season's track fun.

 

[Ed...]

Love it mike. Will u show me how to fit mine? Did u remove the seats?

 

[Mike Roberts]

Both front seats out, centre console out and be careful! You'll manage it fine if you just use common sense. Seats weigh a fricking tonne!!! I'm considering bucketing it.

Oh, and I believe some people have cut/removed the carpet?? I didn't need to.

 

[Ed...]

Centre console? U meen the bit between the seats?

 

[Mike]

Very nice, very very nice, it would look nice going round a certain German road

 

[Mike Roberts]

Sorry Woody, yes - all the extended part of the console around the handbrake.

It'll be on that German road in October Mike, along with Spa.

 

[Deako]

Looks great Mike. Still want one for mine and also considering fixed back buckets. Yb racing do complete sets on eBay with 2x seats, all mounting hardware and a couple of harnesses for reasonable money.

 

[Harpham]

Porn! I love it!

 

[Mike Roberts]

Deako, if I hadn't have specced Recaros, I'd already have buckets. I suspect the subframe is the bulk of the weight, however I'm working on that with a custom version to drop them too

Yb Racing are a good outfit, friend of mine knows them personally so let me know and I may be able to get some more money shaved off.

Looks really good but would have been better if it had a harness bar also. Think some carpet over the bare metal would finish it off nicely. R26.R style.

I assume it uses existing bolt holes etc?

I was thinking more of June time :woody:

 

[Mike Roberts]

Noddie, it would be really easy to have a harness bar added but as I can't be bothered welding in mounts for eyebolts to use one, there's no point.

I'm in France pretty much all of June, Mike. Sorry. Next time.

As stated I had to remove the insulation padding under my rear carpet to fit this cage as there just wasn't enough clearance on the roof, how strange that yours fitted!

 

[Fernandez]

That is a beautiful set up you have there Mike. If only I didnt need a rear seat for my daughter!!!!.... one daughter, one centrally mounted recaro in the rear, Mmmmmm now theres a thought

 

[Foxspeed]

looks very neat like it :thumbsup:

 

[RalphyBMW]

I really wish I had bought one of these when plenty were knocking about.

 

[Mike Roberts]

Still a fair few about, and I know £200 is a bit more than they went for initially - but you still can't argue at that money for something so well made. Plus, you stand to get the money back when you sell up.

 

[RalphyBMW]

Where are these currently available from? Which mountings do they use, I assume the seat backrest mounts and the bottom seatbelt mounts?

 

[RichW]

Looking very nice - thanks for sharing:tongue_smilie:

Drool!! Love it Mike
