Default roll bar

OK I know Autopower makes a roll bar for my 93 HB but you have to cut on the plastic. And :jerkit: APC makes a fake one (damn if I see one more APC sticker on the windshield of a ford escort). I'm looking for any other companies who make them and thier web site.

if you want the bar to be most function and not be in the way of ur vision and entry/exit, you'll need to cut some of your interior pieces (u need to cut the carpet atleast)

If you want the safest somewhat street legal bar then Autopower is the only one. Monkey bars is like having steel daggers pointing at you on your steering wheel. Just as safe as the APC bars. ON some of the Autopower bars I don't think you have to cut anything.

Show bars ARE NOT SAFE. Maybe you didn't read my last post correct. They only thing they should be used for is space at a junkyard.

Yeah don't go for a showbar. What's your reason for wanting a rollbar anyways? Are you going to be hitting the tracks anytime soon?

Looking to get a roll bar for my car. Still a comuter back and forth to work. Don't want to have to gut to weld in. Found a site for direct bolt in applications.

http://www.ioportracing.com/index.html

Very minor cutting and alterations to the inside of the car. Nice part is the cross member for the back roll cage can be removed. Race appoved.
