Desertrose: Is that a Beltronics radar detector on the windshield. Be careful with power cord touching the radio faceplate and leaving rub marks....Ask me how I know. Going to order protectors once I polish the rubs out. WTF in all honesty, that's has to be one of the easist automotive surfaces in the world to scratch.

+ 2 or 3 by now for converting back seat to storage area or a really big sub box.

OP - I like them. Especially if you don't intend to have rear passengers. My Camaro doubles as a "family" car, so I do have riders back there. Looks awesome, Inferno Orange SS roaring into the parking lot, door opens and the seat goes forward to reveal a pink flowery car seat in the back.
Yeah... I'm manly. LOL!
Who says it is "FREE" advertising......we actually asked them to....

Actually it is an old one that I had....put it in there during a trip a few weeks ago....in the picture it is not plugged in, but it routes around the face plate so hopefully I will not have to worry about rub marks! But thanks for the insight....hard to hear with the top down aways.......so chances are good it will go back on the work bench.

Just realized I can secure the trunk when the top is down thanks to the lock behind the left rear seat.
When the car is locked...the truck can not be opened by the button on the door.....

Had the top up today, but did not have my camera. But, top up, you do not even know that the rollbar is there.

I LOVE IT! How much was it if you don't mind me asking. I have been waiting for someone to do a REAL roll bar. Got any pics of the main hoop bars with the doors open, seats leaned forward?

A few more pics. It is 1 3/4 mild steel, we could have added a harness bar, but she was goin for the look (and make her dad happy LOL) so we ommited that. Plates are welded to the floor and the rear shelf with the bars to welded to them. With a harness bar, it bar would be perfectly legal for the dragstrip.
Pics are with the seats all the way back, and they will recline all the way.

Reminds me of a Jeep. Could be good or bad, depending on one's point of view.
