X2! A nice piece of workmanship and good work on installing! The cage is a little an the pricey side but looks like it's worth the money.

It costs about the same as a weld in cage. The benefit is you can do it yourself in your garage.

Your welcome.

I'm actually feeling really good today. They took the pump off which I have had on since Wednesday. The pump is on me for 46 hours to administer a 2nd drug so I don't have to be in the hospital. Which is a huge bonus

I really like that tiger cage. The road race style door bars are awesome. I wish they made a kit for the Maverick.

Lookin good Marty. Ok, so this type of cage isn't approved by all of the various sanctioning bodies... but it really does seem to have very secure mounting points in it's design. The Tiger Cage may have its shortcomings, but a well executed design is not one of them.

It does have approval you just need to contact Ride-Tech as my brain doesn't seem to be working this morning

2nd Chance Camaro - Tiger Cage Install Part 3

2012 08-12 Update - 2nd Chance Camaro - Tiger Cage Install Part 3
www.2ndchancecamaro.com

Good Afternoon all,

Even my girls are excited when boxes come from Ride Tech.



The most important thing is "Do Not Open" the Envelope from Ride Tech. You may order more stuff !!!!!



Now this is how parts are suppose to be shipped.



Mounting the side bars is very simple. Locate the brackets on the main hoop and tighten once all hardware is loosely fastened.





Still trying to decide if we are going to hide this bracket under the carpet. It's almost to nice to hide.





On forward door bar one of the bolts must come up from the underside of the car.



These are the only tools that you need to install a Tiger Cage after you drill the holes in the floor pan.



Cage fully installed.
