The insurance companies put your insurance up a bit i think if you put any kind of roll cage in, seems wierd really - a safety device fitted and they put up your premium!! nuts. Probably take me an hour to work out exactly where i am goin to screw it in!! how do they attatch?

 

[weight]

Insurance goes up, because you believe you are safer when driving!!

Thats a bolt in half cage, does nothing other than looks!

 

[mdjones]

i got one, didnt tell insurance, bolts straight through chassis

 

[weight]

you got any pics??

Good job my insurance isnt affected by none-performance mods.. heh.

 

[mdjones]

not at mo, car is in the garage at the mo, will get some asap. makes the car stiff as fcuk

 

[weight]

you mean they wouldnt charge you for an IK ??? LOL

 

[weight]

why do you think it stiffens the chasis???

full welded cage (or bolted in on reinforced plates) goes from front strut to rear struts that would deffo stiffin the chassis, not a half cage thou

 

[Daz]

They dont charge for anything none-performance related.. oh, and that includes Induction Kits, too.. they dont feel the increase in bhp is so great, heh.

 

[Scott'y]

So is there in drilling involved

 

[weight]

IK is none-performance related lol
