For the record, you'll need to change your seats, add a 5-point harness, and disable the airbag if you want to be safe.

why will i have to change seats?

 

First of all, our seats don't have a slot for an anti-sub strap. That means no 5-point belt. That means no cage.

Second, you shouldn't use a seat with a reclining back with a cage. Remember, stock seatbacks are designed to collapse in certain types of collisions. That can't happen with a cage behind you...which means your head/neck slams into some metal tubing.

Bottom line: if you add a cage, you must also add fixed-back racing seats and a proper 5-point harness system.

This cage obviously renders the backseat unusable. Does anyone know of an EVO cage that will allow occasional use of the backseat? Thanks.

 

A proper SCCA or FIA approved cage must have a horizontal harness bar, at least one diagonal cross-brace, and straight back-stays. There's simply no way for a proper cage to be instlled in such a way that you can safely put people in the backseat. Maybe kids in child safety seats would be OK...but definitely not adults. Even if you just had a simple hoop without ANY bracing at all, it would not be safe to put anyone back there (since their heads would impact the main structure in a collision).
