All those roll cages are nice, but im afraid if you drive on the street without a helmet you would hit your head into the bars possibly. This is why insurance companies are probably against them.

Hay guys sorry to hijack this thread but since so many have posted in this I thought Id ask
Im in Dearborn MI. about 15 miles from Down Town Det. I am looking for someone (Prefer a reasonable price) to install my cage kit I got from S&W Race cars.
Looks like a nice set up but I think the rear bars are to short there like 5 feet long.
anyway I have a quote from one guy for $900 and another for 1200$
Thats withm ripping the int. out myself! Seems high to me but I have never had one done before so I dont know.

Thanks for your help and info
