Don't buy RHD rollover protection. The Cusco roll cage is trash.

Do you want a cage or a bar? What sort of class rules are you trying to comply with? If you want a cage, be prepared to wear a helmet and harnesses while daily driving. A HANS would also be a good idea.

If you want a bar, you don't really need any of that, though you will still need SFI padding for it.

Autopower and Kirk make decent bolt-in units (I would prefer the Kirk myself). If you really want it done right, I would suggest finding a fabricator who is experienced with roll bar/cage work to wled a custom one in for you.

Then you'll probably want to get a Cusco cage because they are JDM bling y0. Just be aware that it is not a safe item.

Where is a good place to get the Kirk bar, and is it already approved for NASA and SCCA? I'd like to make my own, but I'd shoot myself in the foot if I made it and it didn't pass. I was going to get the autopower UWELD but that only because it was all I could find.

The best way to get Cage or Roll Bar is to go some local track Day/autocross/Road Races and ask where they got cages done at. Custom is a way better way to go than buying a bolt in cage(especailly a RHD cage). It will be about the same price as it is to get a a bolt in installed. And it will be stronger.
http://racepa.com/forums/index...&st=0 there are some pics of my roll bar on there it cost 400 for everything.
