I don't know if it's a bolton cage, but Thunder's Website has some pictures of a Wolfe cage installed:

Also, just to be technically correct, 6 pointers are usually called roll bars

Sorry, I totaly over looked that. So now it comes to what type of bolt in. The type that does away with the speakers in the hatch, or the one that bolts to the deck in back. With the version that bolts into the rear deck area, your looking at dropping the tank inorder to bolt the rear bars in. The advantage is, you get to keep the rear speakers and dont have to cut your factory plastic. With the kind that goes through the speakers, the most youll have to do is remove the rear tire to get the rear bars to bolt in. Easier to install, but you loose your speakers and have to cut stuff up.

I have the bolt-in Wolfracecraft roll bar. I was incredibly impressed. I have been installing aftermarket automotive parts on my F-bodys for 20 years. And truly, it was one of the best engineered, best fitting peices I have ever had the pleasure of installing.
