The bar wasn't too bad...my chassis guy had to "massage" a few bars to get them to his liking...

So the car is home, picked it up last night in the pouring rain. Here are some pics of the bar and firewall.
Here is a couple of shots of the window net mount....
Here is where I cut the dash pad to fit the roll bar...
Had an issue with the rear panels hitting the back bars...
Did a rough cut on the passenger side panel.
Here is the finished product....
And with the carpet in....
With the plastics cut I had to come up with a new method for the cargo cover...ended up modifying it to work with the bars installed...
To stop it from shifting around I pulled the carpet back and drove two screws through it and they sit in the rubber bumpers...I put the carpet back over the screws and glued it. Here is a picture of the screws going into the bumper....

That looks fantastic!!! Whoever did you cage did a great job. If you don't mind, could you try and answer a few questions for me?
How much was the cage/install/front shock bars? You could PM me if you like.
On the passenger side of the car in the rear wheel well, was there a big (4"x6") black electrical box thing back there? If so what is/was it? I have it in my TA and was wondering if I could take it off.
Some day i'll have my TA like that.

I believe that box you are referring to is the factory amplifier if I'm not mistaken.

So I ordered the two remaining pieces to button up the interior this weekend. 
Carpet and shifter...of course I am still waiting on my wire harness. Once I have that stuff I can be done with the interior...next is to finish my front suspension....have Spohn K-member, A-Arms, and rack still in the wrapping...want to pick up spindles as well as front and rear brakes...Thinking about trying the TRZ Motorsports anti-roll bar....I will post pics when I get the harness, carpet, and shifter. Hoping to have a buttoned up interior within the next few weeks....I hope....
