Does anyone have instructions or DIY / Pictures on installing a RACESHOP CAGE?

I got a Raceshop Cage with my shell when I bought it. I have the skill to install this, but I do not want to mess up anything in the car by doing this by trial and error. The car has a full interior that I plan to keep. I know the Raceshop cage is impossible to find these days, and the person who made them isn't making them anymore.

I tried using the search function but to no avail. Does anyone have instructions or a step by step DIY on how to install this cage? The one I have it the complete one, hoop, harness bar, rear towers, tower tie in and removable door bars.

Even if you could get me pictures, it would be helpful.

Please HELP!!

Anyone in Houston with this cage - if you're willing to help me or at least show me your car with this cage in it, I'd appreciate it a lot!

Thanks

Ven in Houston.

Take out the seats, leave everything else in. Once the cage is in you won't be able to remove any of the rear interior panels such as the headliner, rear speaker panes, bins, etc... so make sure you aren't planning on replacing your speakers or removing your bins any time soon.

Once the seats are in that's about it, its not very difficult, make sure to cut the carpet where it mounts to the floor pan so that the cage is sitting on the bare metal floor, not the carpet.

Put the main hoop in and then mount the bars that go to the shock towers and work your way forward. Pretty much the very LAST thing you will do is drill the holes in the floor for the main hoop behind the seats and bolt them down. You need to be able to move the bar around until everything is is bolted up.
