Brand new. Installed in my wifes car and then removed. Black powder coat. Cost me $964.00. I have the padding for it also. It's in Arizona right now . Make me an offer and I'll ship it out. If you like you can call me at 360-854-0507. Regards, John

I help John in getting the cage.

It is a bolt in cage built by Autoper. Their part number is 83351. We had the roll caged powder coated after it was shipped to us to make sure the cage had no flaws in it.

I saw this on MiniMania.com

Iv'e had the Autopower in my car for about 18 months and installed 2 others in Mini's at well. It is a really nice system , fits perfectly and is well made. It is versital in that you can have a simple 4 point or add a harness and cross bar or go all the way with a 6 point configuration. It is a totally modular system .I also advise getting it powder coated tho as the standard black paint is somewhat thin and tends to scratch easily. This is my only complaint with the product and they even mention it in their material.

thanx randy, with that role bar are you able to keep your back seat in?? i see you had to cut into your back panel , did you make those covers for the holes?


thanx

I was able to keep the rear seats in with no problems . Yes I had those covers made by a upholstery shop for $20. The way it was set up I could have removed the NOS bottle and the harness cross bar in about 10 min and have the back seat about stock. I did take one person for a ride back there when Peter and I had to pick randy web up at the airport unplanned. He fit back there with his luggage but the harness bar made him feel like he was on a ride at magic Mountain, Good fun !

How about the one sold on Ebay, Built by Bones? I think someone else around here has one.
