Be sure to shop around to find the roof fitment that you like best....not all are created equal. Maybe I'm too picky, but I've noticed that some pre-bent cages don't hug the inside of the roof close enough for my taste.

Any recomendations on who to go with? ... I think I may just have my buddy fab one up for me but I really want the swing out bars for the doors.

Haha, losers! I found it!!

It looks like this


Also, I'm not sure how close to the roof I would want it. I think I would want to be able to pull out the headliner without pulling the cage too.
