Do you want a cage or a rollbar? I'm trying to track down who built M2's rollbar for them, but haven't put in much effort yet...

just a 4pt with removable door bars to start with. Need something that fits well, mounts in the bin area, wont be too close to my head, doesnt interfere with seat travel, and mounts in the rear tool area so it seems like custom is the only option.

You can get a Kirk rollbar that mounts using the tool compartments and the bins space. Not a cage though.

I saw the turbo header that Rolf fabb'd for Dave's vert and it is a work of art.
