how do You solve the back when cage is in?

[s.mac]

I was going to go down this route, something like Alex (karbonkid) has done but I changed my mind when I saw the work required and it really can't be reversed.
I saw the necessity of a cage when a car is properly driven and believe me you don't want to just have it held in with a few bolts. An MG ZR spun into the pit wall and the car was a total right off but the guy walked out, although I bet he's sore the cage did its job!!

I can't see it given any structural support to the car, adding stiffness or preventing flex either.

For someone going down this route its clear that you don't want to weld/ drill into the bodywork but theres no real substitute.

i agree

as much as i would want a cage on the ring, i wouldnt want this one.

id rather rely on the car and aurbags than have some spurioysly attached metal tubes flying around the cockpit

maybe check if it is FIA or MSA approved.

I would want a cage to be bolted to the floor, that cage looks good but in a roll will break the bolts and go forward looking at the angle it sits at.

ok this is what i looked for, Wiechers cage and looks like rear seats can stay in. Any other picture without the seats?
