Golf Bags, Roll Bars & Subs

Anyone able to get a full set of clubs behind their front seats while having a roll bar installed?

If so, which bar and how difficult is it to get the clubs in and out?

Also - does your bar work with factory subs?

Hoping but doubtful...

Though not quite the same situation as you, I actually have a cab where if I take out the driver and woods, the bag lays across the rear seats folded down. I then just put the driver and woods in the back (usually with the "heads" on the floor behind the front seats ).

My golf bag rides as a front passenger. I couldn't get it behind the front seats, but then again I didn't try real hard. I just tilt the seat all the way back and use a blanket/towel to lay on the seat.

Thanks Mike - I guess I could always put it in the front.

Anyone else?

OK. I just did a test. If you use a smaller bag it goes in. I layed mine one top of the back seats (back seats folded down). I also have a sub, takes up the same space as the OEM one. You might be able to stack them and get two in there. I would use some blankets to protect the sides though. You might have to take the driver and/or woods out, depending on shaft length.

Sorry, forgot, I do NOT have a roll bar.

Thanks Mike - I can get my set in without the bar, but I am curious if it's possible with a bar in place - if so, which bars will allow the necessary access.

Those with bars:
were you successful and with which bar?
which bar does not allow the required access?
do you have a bar that allows the use of factory subs?

Thanks again for your help.

Yes. I have the tequipment rollbar, gt3 seats....and as long as I slide the drivers seat all the way forward, I can wiggle the club bag in. It's not a great fit, but it does work.

Good to hear - thanks Maxwell

Is it a full-size bag?

Thanks again!

in a gt3 with a roll bar it doesn't quite fit a full size bag. i've tried. well, you may be able to but will be scraping things here and there. didn't want to find out so didn't force it in.
