Roll Bar For R56 Chassis?

Anyone know if the Autopower will fit the R56? So far I see it only listed up to 2006 (R53 Chassis). Will the R53 one fit the R56? anyone know anyone with a R56 with a roll bar? and if so what are they running?

It might because the r56 is slightly bigger. but some bends or mounting points might rub. you could always see if you can get measurements and see if it can fit that way.

True. I was just checking to see if anyone knew of a existing roll bar that they can confirm will fit.

I called them a little while back when I was looking at cages and they did not seem aware that there were even 2 different models, i.e. R53 and R56. I opted for a custom built cage from a local builder. It ran me $900.

Here are some pics before I re-carpeted the area under the rear seats.
