Roll Cage, Going to do it this spring Options

[jcbass7]

So my pal (fellow Coastie) was showing me some pictures from home(Washington state) and i stumbled upon pics of his jeep. well he explained to me that the 5 pt. roll cage on his jeep, he made by himself, bending welding etc. I was extremely impressed by his work and we got talking about it and we are going to put in a cage in my car. Something similiar to Tufy's but i am not totally sure of what i want in the end. Definatly want to stiffen up the REAR of the hatch. My coupe was a lot less flexible in the back and i am looking forward to some serious support back there. i want to keep the cage somewhat tame though, as i want to build custom fiberglass enclosures after i have the cage installed.

The plan is to build something like this:

i also want it to be removable, with little to no permanent welds into the car. but if we can't avoid it then oh well

any one have any comments, questions, concerns?


EDIT: ps this is not incase i roll over, its purely for chasis rigidity and a little bit athstetics
