Looks great! I like how the down tubes go through the dash, makes the cage really disappear. I would probably skip the door bars, or maybe have them set real low like in the mule.

By the looks of it they had faired it into the a pillar and eliminated the pillar molding. Am I correct?

The cage is certifiable for about anything you'd care to run NHRA,SCCA etc. That is why there are still compronmises in the hoop and the doorbars in regards to aesthetics.Jim tells me that as long as your strapped in he'll guarentee you'll walk away at 200mph. Seeing as he's built a myriad of cars that have hit the wall at 200mph I believe him. He won't make this guarentee with a kicked back hoop or a lower doorbar. He's also not prone to exaggeration.Thanks for the feedback. Ed

We have essentially made the bar part of the interiors A pillar trim.To give you an idea of how effective theis placement is I was out the day they installed the bars. I walked right past the car and then commented to Jim and Greg about when they were going to get around to it. The both gave me a blank stare and said they're in there!.Duhh... If you don't look closely they can be easily overlooked. I'm not always the most observant on the first pass anyway.lol.Ed

Really slick looking install. Would love to have something similar in my car.

What is the status of the kit in regard to production?

Wondering how much room remains under the dash on the right side. Is there enough space for a Vintage Air (or similar) unit?

...also, Id really like to see some photos of the headliner when it starts to take shape.

Thanks
