this guy is selling a three piece roll cage and i did some reasearch on hondatech and it looks like some of them mount in the speaker area, this is for my 90 civic..my question is how good is a three piece roll cage i was assuming they were all one piece?

 

whats involved in putting one in? he said one part goes to the wheel well, and then u gotta drill holes?


kinda worried about drilling holes and what bolts to use and such..the part that goes to the wheel well do i have to also drill there to?


anyone recommend a place in the bay area that can install rolll cages for a ok price?

well is it a bolt in or a weld in cage?
and how many points is it?? do u mean a 3 point cage? if so.. ive never seen one.. ive seen 4 point, but never a 3..
need a little bit more info to help ya out

 

sorry its a bolt in

he said its a 3 piece roll cage, i emailed him how many points it is, he hasnt emailed back yet..but its a bolt in 3 piece cage

he said u gotta drill holes in the wheel well/floor

 

ttt

 

i got a bolt in cage, autopower to be exact. It easier then it sounds. You just put it together piece by piece in your car. once its in u can barley move it around about a half in play anywhere in the cage, haha, then u just drill some holes. and a metal plate goes on the other side and kinda sandwitches your body between the mounting plate of the cage and the metal on the other side. Sounds kinda confusing but talking about sandwitches is makin me hungry, its easy i wouldn't pay someone to do it. O yea your door panels might need a lil smashin to get closed

 

I know of no three-piece roll cage. Most bolt-in roll bars come in three pieces: one main hoop and two rear supports. That's not a cage. Any six point cage is going to come in more than three pieces unless it is a custom job that was created as three pieces (which would be a nightmare to position I imagine).

First, find out if this is a cage or a roll bar. Then find out who made it. Then we'll tell you how to install it.

 

cool thanx travis..yeah i did more research and got to the meaning of cage and roll bar

its a 3 piece roll bar like u said, he doesnt know the brand though just said that it bolts to the wheel well and then the floor..he said the bars are blue but are chipping so yeah i dont know the brand. he wants 150 for it, im gonna ask him if it has the mounting brackets and such

 

It's probably an autopower. I have one for sale too, and I'm within driving distance Of course it's for a crx, so I dont know if it'll fit.
