Default Window net question and harness question

Does the window net have to go inside the funny car cage hoop area? If so, how far? If not, how far forward of that area does it have to go? Does it have to be installed before I call for a cage inspection?

Does the seat harness need to be installed before I call for a cage inspection? Sorry if these are stupid questions... But I just don't know

.

The sticker is only for the chassis in the **** pit, nothing to do with safety equipment.
Hell you can get a sticker with no body or suspension.

the window net is usually mounted on the funny car cage hoop, the funny car cage will keep you in the car in case of a roll over(well your belts will but besides the point) so you dont need the net to go past the main hoop of the funny car cage the window net is just to keep your arms from flailing out of the car in case of a crash and window smashes. -tony-

As long as the mounting points are in the center or inside of the cage you are legal.
They do not allow the net to be mounted outside of the tubes.
I still use a full size net, but some guys prefer the mini net.
