Arrow Kirk roll cage fitment issues

So I just got in from trying to fit my Kirk 6 point roll cage and Wow what a biznatch it is being! I can see right away I will have to remove my head liner and I might have to cut part of my dash. I didn’t think I was going to have to modify it like that. Has anyone run into these issues before? Any tips???

Sorry didn't see that. Why would you keep the interior if you are installing a cage?
Most cages are designed for use in race cars. Not sure why you'd want a cage in a street car. Those hard metal bars hurt when you bang your head against them.

Becuase its a nice car and I don't mind the cage being in there. I have a cusco in my S13 and I dont hit my head. I have most of it in the car and I fit fine in it. Plus I have seen a bunch of pics with full interior and a 6pt.
