are those 10 point roll cages from http://www.swracecars.com, one whole piece? i dont get how you would put inside the sc? do you put it up by section and then bolt together along with bolting it on the car?

no its not one piece thats what it looks like all put together
its in pieces when you get it and they fit almost as good as a custom cage
they fit like 95% as good as a custom cage actually and for the price you can't beat it

thanks for the pic but cant really tell how good it fits. im really looking to see pics of the cage with interior, to see how close the hoop and downward door bars come to the panels inside. for that price it definatly is a steal if your doin a full race car and interior is not an issue. but im sure most people here on the forums arent full race and or would like to keep their interior without having to hack it up

Sounds like you may want to opt for a bolt-in setup.

definatly do not want a bolt in cage. i bend and weld pipe all day at my shop. so a custom cage isnt a problem. im just curious as to how well it fits because as i said the price is a steal not to mention the time it'll cut instead of bending, notching, etc... all day. its just another alterative to doing a custom cage and saving some time, so im interested to see how it looks.

OK so i found a link with lots of pics of a roll cage installed with full interior. but i dont like how it comes in front of the dash i would like for mine to go right along my a pillar and contuine behind my dash. but other than that it looks really nice.

Enjoy!

autopower makes a cage, and I dont think you have to take much interior out.
