I know Bill had problems with his not fitting. I don't think you can run the interior panels in the back seat area.

Not fitting How? All interior panels can be used with our roll cage. They may need to be cut to fit the bars after installation, depending on which rear bars you get, but they are not eliminated.

I'm happy with mine. No horror stories for me but then again I had someone install it for me. By the way I just received their minitub kit and adjustable spring perches which are pretty nice pieces as well.

I believe the installer was the one who messed up. I didn't mean any offense by it Dan. I have seen many of your roll bars installed with all the factory interior pieces.

Kit fits very well. I was very impressed.

Check sig for pics.

NOTE - The back bars are NOT wolfe's. We made ours slightly different as it suited what we were doing a little better.

I didn't install my interior panels again to save weight and because they were gray.

I installed my kit along with a local chassis guy.. He was VERY reluctant to use a "kit" knowing the typical quality of most kits... I had already purchased the Wolfe so there was no turning back... Long story short, he was amazed at the fitment/quality of the Wolfe kit... Said it was one of the easiest installs he had done...

FWIW, all panels will fit if the cage is done correctly.

Default Wolf race craft Cage

The fitment was easy enough for a beginner. This was my first cage install I had it jig notched and tacked it in with a mig welder, then had a local shop tig it. I also installed the through floor subs and torque arm window net, Wolfs stuff is Top notch quality pieces. Email for pics my file is to big to attach. T

The dash took me about 1 hour to remove, the only thing that would make it much easier is if you have an extra guy helping you when it comes time to pull it out of the car after you unbolt everything. Pic sent

I payed extra for the jig notching. I asked the shop that did my install how much they would charge if it wasn't jig notched and it would have been alot more than just paying Wolfe to do it.

I have installed 8 Wolfe 10pt cages. 2 being mild steele and the rest Chromoly. I have 0 problems with any of them. They fit like a champ and look really nice when done. You should get their threw the floor subframes at the same time. It really makes a difference IMO.
