Default Anyone have an AutoPower Roll Cage?

I am planing on getting an Autopower roll cage for my 5th gen, and I was wondeing if anyone has one, either the bolt in or weld in. I just want to know how the fitament is and how hard it was to install and how much of an obstical it is inside, because the car will still be street driven, but I have to have one for nhra, so if anyone has info, please chime in, thanks.

Autopower cages are not what you want. They are roadrace spec cages, not drag spec. You would never want to drive an autopower fully caged car on the street.. Your head would loose with an impact with the rollcage, unless your going to wear a helmet on the street...

Well if your going to be driving a car that needs a cage because of your times on the street... I dont know about that man. But if its a must.. you can always pad the **** out of the bars, but watch your head man... wear a helmet, the streets are 10x more dangeriuos than the track, expecially with all that steel around you.
