Smile 8-point competition engineering roll cage

Hey everyone. I am working on installing an 8 point cage in my 1990 lx hatch. The installation is straight forward and the welding will not be a problem. I was just curious if anyone out there had pictures of their roll cage that they have installed. The car doesn't run fast enough to warrant the roll cage but I figure I got it at a good price and safety should come first in our sport. So, if you do have pictures, are they digital and can they be posted in your reply. So far I have run a best of 14.2 @ 102.3 which should equate to low 13's. Traction is limited on launch i.e. launch @ idle. Time to get slicks as well. Hopefully will be able to race more this season as I am done with college. Bank is a higher balance. Any how thank you in advance for the pictures if you have them.

These are some pics of fellow MW member Fox Body's 6-point cage in his 79 coupe.

Thank you for the pictures. I have installed mine as of now. Did you notice any difference in the feel of the car while driving? Mine isn't running yet, I have 3 different projects going at once on the car.
