Default Where to purchase BOLT IN 6 point rollcage???

Yes i did a search. Yes the question has been asked before. No, no one really answered the question. Dont want to see any pics, dont want to discuss rules, dont really care about your budies custom built/weld in cage from Alaska.

I simply need to know who SELLS A BOLT IN 6 POINT CAGE for a 92-95 CIVIC HATCH. Guy here wants $900 to do it locally.

Dont mean to be an *** about this, but I dont want this thread to get off topic. Want to buy cage NOW.

To see pics and time slipe of the car : https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=654560

Did not want to get into the rules side, but anyways, Quoated STRAIGHT from the NHRA Sportcompact Rule book: Pg. 12 of 52 in General Regulations " on unibody cars with stock floor and firewall, the rollcage may be <U>bolted</U> or welded to the floor/rocker box via 6 inch x 6inch x .125 steel plates, similar to rollbar attachments requirements of paragraph 4:10 of page 73................."

Really? I didn't know that, I was interested in getting a bolt in also. But what's the point if it's useless. Just in case I want to take it out in the future I wanted a bolt in.

Nice looking car, and nice looking time too

yes, the cage may be bolted to the floor, but the rest of the dimensions/material/construction has to fit the NHRA regulations.

Remember that this is only a concern if you car is going to run 11.99 or quicker (11.49 if at IHRA tracks, or 13.99 of you're convertable)

Most of the Autopower bars are for autocross type setups, and are not designed for NHRA specs.
