Hello.

So can I buy one to bolt in? Most places online say "all models" however im thinking may be not as the parts seem large and I have to get it through a door not a boot !!

Cheers once again.

I'm pretty sure that the sparco one I fitted in my hatch went through the door rather than the hatch. So therefore the same should apply to the saloon.

It was a few years ago, but I think I'm right.

normal hatchback nova the cage also goes in through the door not the boot, so cant see a problem!

Novafusion69 has a hatch rear section cage in his four door loon, was a pain to get in but went in lol

If you haven't already done so, you'll more than likely need to cut out the rear bulkhead, if its a full cage.

Some rollcages I've seen mount down by the rear inner arch. Whilst on a hatch you can just remove the seats, the saloon has a fixed metal bulkhead in the way

i dont think ive seen an off the shelf cage where that should be a problem jack. having said that still cut the bulkhead out as it weighs to much

Does the shell lose much rigidity without it? I mean I know there's a cage going but still...

Cant see it really, not like a nova shell is the most rigid of structures anyhow!
