Best Roll Cage Kit

I'm going to buy a prefab 8 point roll cage kit for installation in my 82 Z28. I want to keep all the stock interior. Who makes the best kit that will allow me to keep my arm rests. Pictures would be nice too.

Thanks!

Re: Best Roll Cage Kit

Re: Best Roll Cage Kit

If you are referring to any A or B pillar trim pieces I'd say no. This is for the S&W 8 point roll bar. A roll cage is a 10 point or more. And you would definitely have to cut some of that trim.

S&W offers the best fit and used to be the least expensive as they would only charge exact shipping to your location. They now have a set price of $99 via FEDEX (for an 8 point kit). I think a CE roll bar from Summit or Jegs would be cheaper now. I have no experience with fitment of either of these products.

Good luck.
