^Thanks Jake, I will check into those. The Sparco Harnesses I plan on getting are the 3" Comp Type that hook right up to the harness cage! Not the silly tuner series!

I didn't ask Rob what the condition was or anything about the blue one that would be yours. All I know is that eventhough ours were ready to go, his guy isn't going to be back in the states until the 18th. So I will know when he gets back when they are ready....can't wait!

Update:

So on Friday I treked out to Rochester, NY to pick up my Autopower Race Roll Bar from a member off of nasioc. 780 miles later I was home! I know, long drive for something you can get shipped from a vendor. I actually saved a couple hundred dollars after the gas usuage for this trip compared to buying it new. Plus its already painted a nice charcoal/silver color, and comes with new hardware and mounting (He re-used his, and gave me the new ones when he bought a different full Autopower cage). This will def help stiffen up the suspension even more, doesn't seem it added too much weight, but its beefy with its 2" tubing. I plan on hooking up Sparco 3" Harnesses, and already ordered an I/O Port Racing Camera Mount for my Canon Dig Video camera. This should have me all setup for Limerock! Pics will come later today or tomorrow. I still need to have the harness cage bolted in, shouldn't take long using Kiwi's lift, prob 30mins to get it all good. Def adds some character to the car!!

Its half a cage, basically starts from behind the driver/passenger seats and goes back into the rear of the car. Its a bolt in piece, but you can def just weld the bracket into the car.
