Rear Cage will be fine. Simpson MS fitted mine and many like it. Fully certified for racing.....if that's your thing.

Cheers,
Yeah I done a good bit of searching around so it looks to be fine. Waiting for Custom Cages getting back to me regarding the front section and door bars.

Here is mine...





The custom cages multipoint looks wicked…if I could warrant the cost of installation on the multipoint I'd swap them over. I had mine made by Nickson Motorsport in Surrey. They made the rear then they added the front a year later. Only pain is can't access rear seats from the boot so wheel transportation is difficult at times.

Graham, thanks for the pics.
That looks really good.
Agreed the custom cages multipoint looks awesome but like yourself i couldnt justify it. Especially for sprinting in a road car class.

Shimmy,
Its required for cars over 2.0l running in modified road class.
As soon as the scrutineers spotted the Intrax and adjustable top mounts they were all over the fact it only had a 1/2 cage.

Why not go for the custom cages 6 point? Only about £500, think it says about £1000 installed on their site?

If the buggers would get back to me Graham that's likely what id go for and just use the front section tied into what's there already seeing as its Custom cages as well.

Pretty sure the rear would sell on pretty easy on its own.

Oh ok missed the bits about you already having a rear

Yeah rear would sell very easily on Cutters I'd imagine.

Ah...Yes it has a welded in rear Customs Cage that Martin had fitted during his ownership.
Be a shame to remove it.
