You don't want to sit in the back of a car with a roll bar. Very dangerous.

well if youre careful, do you think it would be a dremel job? Or would it have to be done professionally?

we are pretty decent with a dremel.. but the problem is the interior is SO tight... so its VERY difficult to get it in WITH the interior.. i cant tell you how hard it will be for you, all i can tell you is the dremel is one of my fav tools.. and my interior is laying in a store room in a big pile.. draw your own conclusion...

basicly.. IMHO it is NOT worth putting in a cage AND interior.. its SUCH a pain in the ass..

I agree and the extra weight of the interior doesn't help but add weight with the roll bar.

This installation on a m3 gives a good explanation of what to expect.

I like this one due to the removable cross-menber and seat belt harness bar. This is what i'm putting in my civic. First taking it to an upolstery shop to get padding and a custom cover made.
