Even with a 4 point roll bar the main hoop and rear down bars make it impossible to sit in the back. Not to mention it's extremely dangerous to be surrounded by steel tubing in an accident while not restrained by a racing seat and racing harness. Have you ever seen crash test footage? The occupants move around a lot inside the car. Imagine all those body parts and heads slamming into steel tubing, not pretty. That goes for the driver as well. It's not the greatest idea to have a cage in a street car but it's your money. I'll post pics of my old 6pt Maier Racing roll bar later.<br /> <br /> <small>[ November 03, 2010, 11:42 AM: Message edited by: SF Coupe ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>04cobra408</b> <br /><small>Member # 4025</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2010,10,3,12,34,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> custom 6pt w/ removable swing outs.<br />Thanks to drew for getting the guy to build it for me. <img border="0" alt="[patriot]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" /> <br /><br /> <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c98/04cobra408/IMG_0200.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /> <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c98/04cobra408/P4040121-1.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /> <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c98/04cobra408/P4040115.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /> <br /> <small>[ November 03, 2010, 12:35 PM: Message edited by: 04cobra408 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>SmokinLX</b> <br /><small>Member # 1684</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2010,10,3,13,55,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by SydeWaySix:<br /><strong> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by SmokinLX:<br /><strong> I have the masimum motorsports 6 point with swing out's and it fit's nice and still has room for passenger's or a car seat in the back <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> .

No they don't really get in the way of anything in My car but some have to trim their armrest's. As mentioned before I know I would'nt sit in the back of My car!!
