installing a roll cage/bar is not very hard at all i have a autopower bar in my car and it went in very easily so just get one and do it. if you want one for scca type events i would go with autopower cause they are cheap and the scca alows them

4 points don't equal a roll cage that is a roll bar.

and in my opinion cusco's cage is horrible plus its designed for RHD. go with autopower/kirk you could probably get the race version for like 350 shipped

lol ya i went with the autopower street bar then just added a harness bar for my 5 pts cause they are wrap around. thats what i would sugest for anyone to do if you have a friend with a welder cause it is like 100 more to get one with the harness bar and i did a harness bar on mine for 37 cents

BTW slammed_93_hatch were you at the nor cal CMI meet that i had? cause for some reason i think i recognize that sn. lol i used to be 93eh6 but i got banned for a dumb joke

Most all of the Cusco cages I've installed have not had any problems with LHD vs. RHD issues. The issue with the Civic ones is that they are all designed for the non-power roof models and thus the main hoop is too tall. You can get around this by either modifying the cage or losing your headliner.

Also, a 4pt. cage stays behind the front seats, so the LHD vs. RHD issue is non-existant.

wrong the diagnol bar on the man hoop goes from the passenger high to drivers low when for RHD it needs to go from driver high to passenger low.

what is pictured IS NOT A ROLL CAGE its a roll bar.


both are legal to run on the street.

a cage is stupid to run unless you are also gone were a helmet your 5 point harness and your regular seat belt every time you get in
