Got my comp engineering roll cage kit today and install is going Sun.

Doesn't look too hard (I hope) You guys got any advice before I start?

prep and paint before it goes in. Dont bolt it, weld it in..

I have a 6-pt rollcage in my stang, so i can offer advice. Mine is bolted and welded - thats the best combo. Also, if u can, get the bars that tie into the front floorboards to sway on a hinge so u can get in/out easily. What style mustang do u have. If it's SN-95 i can offer more advice.

well, prepped and painted it today. Removed rear seat, panels, and all kinds of other stuff. Did a mock up and it looks like it is going to fit real well.

tommorrow it gets welded in...hopefully!
