Roll Bars for my 86 FC

hey everyone,

i was just wondering what some good rollbars/ cages would be for my hardtop fc/

I want something that would protect me in a rollover but i also want something that takes up alot of my interior.

Thanks to anyone who responds.//

Autopower makes a nice roll bar. beware with the seat back option as access to your storage bin, if you have them, will be severely limited.

And if you want some type of roll bar to take up a lot of space, just tell them to "supersize it". LOL. Most roll bars are okay if you still have the stock seats, as they will slide under the main hoop, but my Recaro seats are kind of wide in the shoulder area, so seat travel is less, but the car fits me perfectly.

I don't have a recent pic of the roll bar, but here is the recaro, you can see that the shoulder is very wide.

those are nice///

those are some nice seats.

are they comfortable for long journeys? and how much $ did they set you back?

back to rollbars..

do you mean if i have seats in the back(which i don;t) or bins i won;t be able to get to them?

cause i have bins and i use them a fare bit.

I like the cage on fc3s


it kind of takes up to much though,

one thats less restrictive to looking back, something like the convertable rollbar inside the coupe/.

That is the race bar. Just get the street bar and it takes less room. Go to I/O Port Racing for more info on them. I have a link on my site.

I guess that mine is just a little harder to look out of



Autopower 4 point should be just fine for you.
