I have researched this over the years and really the only way for a 10pt in a 'vert is to have a chassis shop custom build the front bars down the A-pillars. I would definatly recommend going thru the dash, not the ghetto front bars that people put in without removing the dash.

The other solution would be to buy a Wolfe 10pt front kit and modify them since the A-pillar location is identical to the coupes. Probably wouldnt be that much fabrication to make them work nicely in a vert. The main difference would be in the front upper crossbar (by the sunvisors)....that would probably have to be custom for the verts if you wanted to keep the top down operation functional.

I love my 10 point in my car...They didn't go down the A-pilliar though....they didn't have to cut my dash at all....I would also suggest to get some swing outs...I got some on my car and love them....I will post up some pictures...
