Get a Dimma cage if you want a show cage... Totally pointless, and would probably kill you if you did roll the car

www.fusionfabrication.net (or a variation of that)
These are show cages which actually bolt into the car rather than bolting to the seatbelt mounts and like Ed says, resulting in killing you.

What OJC and ed are trying to point out is that if you get a show cage thats exactly what they are for, if you was to roll the car into a ditch or a marching band the SHOW CAGE is more likely to harm then help you.

I'd like to roll into a procession of anti war protestors and impale them with my X-diagonal.

The Fusion ones are just fancy half cages... Would recomend one of them over a Dimma any day!

Dimma ones are toilet.
One of Brads mates had a Fusion cage in his Mk3 Astra which he rolled and it saved his life, he loved it so much he had it cut out of the Mk3 and fitted to his Mk2 Champion Astra (was featured in TV)

^^^ Apart from the fact you have to send a cheque to them first, they cash the cheque then 5 weeks later you get the cage. I personally don't like the idea of sending a cheque to someone I've never met.

a show cage would do more than no cage at all as even bending the cage would absorb the energy....
