Window Net Install Help

I was wondering for those of you with a full roll cage, how did you incorporate the window net into the cage and what mounts etc did you use? Pic would be EXTREMELY helpful, thanks!

Re: Window Net Install Help

The bottom mount is through a slip tube at the rear. The front of the bottom is spring loaded so when I pull it up to latch the seat belt connector at the top, it pulls the net tight.

The upper mount is solid mounted at the rear with a rod end so when unlatched, it swings down out of the way.

The seatbelt latch needs to be on the inside of the roll bar tubing.
