Hi all

I have just bought this...


I have questions

1) Where exactly does it bolt in? I see holes for what look like the rear seatbelt mounts, and possibly the seatbelt mount on the b-pillar. Where does it bolt in the footwell? Do you drill straight into the floor?

2) Any tips on putting it in the car? Do you need windscreen taken out? How much trim needs removing?

Thanks in advance

you need the brackets which weld to the floor, then the feet weld to brackets.

Not sure you always need to weld the spreader plates, but you will need the plates in place to bolt to.

That would be why you can't see in the car where they land - the cage isn't directly supported by the car shell at all points.

i have the same cage and you need to make plates for the feet of the cage to sit on. you only need to pull afew bits out of the car to fit it like the seats and that should be all. deffo not the windscreen. your gunna have to pull the door bars off and then refit them when their in the car aswell before you drill any holes to make sure it all lines up. hope this helps
