Those drinks are stong and get you wired! (for anyone that knows what im talking about) Anyways...this is not a easy "BOLT IN"..more as a "slam/bang/hammer IN"..me and 3 frinds worked form 8pm to 12:30..so heres the results. I posted many angles becasue when i searched for pics I found only a few..maybe some people would like to know where all the mounting points are...where exactly the bars go etc. MY first idea was to assemble it in the car..lightly bolt in all the bolts and move the cage slightly around where its going to mount. WRONG. this is SUCH a tight fit i had my whole interiir stripped, carpet pulled back..and even removved the 1/4"sound deadening(where cages bolts to floor) to gain clearence for the center "main" bar. Clearence is sotight between the floor and the headliner that is put a few creases in the headliner
eeee. BUt i will get over it. i hope. Also..I dont see how people say this is for a RHD vehicle as both sides are semetrical. Enjoi!
PROS: *Flashy, blue cucso sig. paint
*stiffins up the chassis alot( i didnt get the test it much..but i really felt a ddifference driving it home)
*nice show peice
CONS:
*pretty hard to put in
*little TOO tight of a fit
*not legal for racing..show only!!lol
* you lose your glove box..and sun visors.
pics:

its for those JDM freaks. why do people buy engine dress up parts..they sereve no function oversotck besides looks and people arent going to see that roling down the road either? products made for gullible americans and i am one of them!

just an FYI the cages are FIA approved for a variety of events but Cusco has never made the effort to get any sort of US approval via SCCA, etc. Perhaps in the future they will
