Sorry you had to see it Travis but it’s coming out cleaner than I ever expected , the only thing I won’t like is nit having the actual glass in, but oh well, yes that’s an s&w kit for a 96 EK I bought yearsss ago , just got lucky it all fit together nicely ---

dont be sorry man its not mine any more and i dig it. just make sure when you make the roof bars you leave enough room for the targa removers, and you are taller then me and my helmet would smack the roof all the time so watch for fitting issue there ---

Ya Joe I was pretty worried about that to until I realized there’s no way of making the rear bars come through the back without going through the glass they’d have to have an s bend which won’t work ---

Do you have a number for him? I’ll call him up now, I see your point but there is absolutely no way of putting a cage legally in a del sol without going through the back window and if they really put up a fuss about a 2’x4’ window that’s rough, I’m shedding what 3lbs if that? ---

Don’t sweat the rear window. It’s 100% legal to necessitate a proper cage install. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/turbob16s-turbo-del-sol/203971.md?page=2)
