S&W or CE Roll bar
Looking for input on member's experiences installing S&W and CE roll bars. We'll be putting a 6 point in my bird soon. It's a convertible so we'll likely have to mod the rear bars some but curious as to which brand fit together the best regarding the notches, which hoop tucked in the best. I'll be in OH next week and going right past Summit Racing so I can save the $100 freight fee and pick up the CE kit. Or, S&W is under 2 hours away from me, and I have family up in eastern PA, so I could easily shoot up and pick up a kit from them as well.

Re: S&W or CE Roll bar
I've had both. My first cage was a CE 8-point, and now I have an S&W 12-point. Overall they were both pretty good. I think the S&W one was a little bit nicer, overall. They were installed about 6yrs apart.
