    Default Safety devices roll cage

    Hi guys ive just tried fitting my safety devices 6 point roll cage to my GSI which presented me with a problem, as its a sunroof model the cage will not sit in height wise. So how do i replace the sun roof and mechanism?

    Is it normal to remove the sunroof and its mechanism and fit a sheet of perspex with a seal around it?

    if you dont fancy cutting the cage, your best bet is to weld in a steel plate, will be stronger and safer than perspex. but depends if you still want light to come in i guess...?!?

    I saw some pictures on another forum of a car that had had its sun roof replaced with polycarb. It looked tidy!
    I'll try and find the pictures again, and get back to ya.
