Default let's see those sedans with roll cages

I'm really contemplating on my eg sedan as a chassis since I already have it but I'm kind of a heavy guy and it's already hard enough for me to get out of it without a cage, I have to slide the seat back to get out . With a 2/3 door I have easier access due to the longer door but that means more money. Anybody got some pics of caged up sedans so I can see how the door bars sit with the driver's door? Anyone with swingouts?

look at it this way, the bar is supposed to pass midway between your elbow and shoulder. i myself am a fat ***, and a removable steeringwheel helped out immensely.

here is my hatch's cage. i dont want to hear any crap about the d bars, it passed again with them. im good for another 3 years.

I posted some pics of Jtech's 4 door. Do a search on HT, I posted it in a forum with a 4 door here in NJ that runs mid 10's. I thinks the civic is CLM's or something if I'm correct. I'll try to get some up soon.

Not to thread jack, but since we are talking cages whats an average cost for a 6 or 8 point cage installed in an EK coupe? Not looking for an exact number just a ballpark figure.

Wow, thats a really good deal. If end up deciding to go with a 6 point the 1 day turn around would make it worth the trip out.
