Roll Cage

Would some of you guys with roll cages installed in your 996TT's mind posting some interior pictures. I'm trying to get a feel for how restrictive it will make the passenger compartment. Thanks

Buddy, the reason I went with the half cage was so my small daughter could still sit in the back. She's small enough but having the bar right next to her head convinced me to pull the back seats.

Ken where did you get your half cage and is it leather wrapped?

It's a DAS bar that is wrapped in leather. Most upholstery shops can do the work.

I guess you mean rollbar?
IMHO, You do not want a roll cage on a street car, it is outright dangerous if you are not wearing a helmet. I would never put my kids in the rear seat with a roll bar there either.
I have a full roll Heigo cage installed in my 993 and I am about to remove it.
Yo might want to check out the Heigo ones, they have nice products. Great roll bar Ken!
