Rollcage

Does anyone have a rollcage that still allows the use of the back seat? If so how did you make it?

Jegs sells a roll cage plus a "Universal Rear Seat Addition" or something like that. Never seen it, but sounds like thats what would be needed. Will either get that or a custom one made when I get the car painted.

Chassisworks also sells the rear seat bars. The difference is that the two bars going back have a curved spot on them instead of going straight. It kind of goes straight back and then turns down, leaving more rear headroom. The only thing to consider is even with those bars, who is going to be able to sit in the back or even want to? You'll have the seat brace bar running across the main hoop right in front of the rear passengers face(if they leaned forward). I was going to get the bars in question but then realized the rear seat will be basically useless anyway so why bother. You can still leave the rear seat in with the regular bars, there will just be no headroom below them.

I saw one in I think camaro performance magazine that had a bar that went across the back seats (closer to the back of the front seats)that you could remove whenever you have passengers in the back. I think they said it came from RKsport so you might wanna try looking there. I think rksport only sells 4th gen stuff but the roll cage was in a 3rd gen I guess they work for both but I am not sure.
