comp engineering rollbar..

does the bar clear the vert top? or am i going to have to get one custom bent and tweeked a bit diffrently to clear the vert top and interior panels?

i know i can bring the height of the main hoop down, but the entire point of this is to be NHRA legal... and given my height(esp with a helmet), i cant bring it down too far.

anyone have it installed? any pics?

Travis, I have the Comp. Eng. 8 point. as with the T top or Hard top or Vert the HOOP made for the 3rd Gen needs to be trimed No matter which one it gets put in.

yea, but the way its bent, can it clear the top and still be the proper legal height?

and does it fit between the plastic vert rear panels? or just infront of them? i just want a pic of that area on a vert so i know i can fit it there and have the top open and close...

i havent bought it yet, so if theres another brand (S&W??) that fits, i'll go with that.



and i still have no clue how im going to run the rear bars.
as of right now, i was just going to install the doorbars and main hoop, and then i'll probly have someone bend up some custom rear bars that curve before the tonnu cover and end just above the "seat back" of the rear hump

unless somone has a better idea.
