Yeah, I was looking at their website the other day and I was actually going to ask about their 8pt. and 10pt. cages. Jared, you beat me to it. According to their site, the 10pt. will go in without modifying the dashboard. If someone has a pic of an 8pt. or 10pt. S&W cage, please post a pic or tell us your experience with this cage. Also, how was the fitment of the cage in your car? Thanks.

if you pay me half what they want to ship it i'll bring it to you.

S&W is like 5 minutes from my girls house. I just put in an application there for a sales position. I have done a 6 point in a 93 hatch, working on a 6 point in my crx and also in a supra. They are pretty well made and require some notching/grinding to make the joints right for welding.

make sure you call first, they don't usually stock them. they have the tubing and the specs but don't bend it until it is needed. if you order it they will bend it and then let you know when it is ready

I am about to order 6 8pt cages from them for some cars around here.
We are getting one hell of a deal from them for buying in bulk. Definately can't complain!
