My guess: The mirror switch can be operated by the driver or the passenger, the start switch is for the driver only.

The cage and switches look great Matt, very nice work.

Nice looking cage, Dan is the man.


Only complaint is the location of the starter/mirror assembly. I mean, where you going to put the coffee cup now?

I paid $1975 shipped and would let them go to anyone in Mid-A for $1875 if they meet me fairly local to Richmond.

What are the new improved compression adjusters?

^bottom right corner is exactly what the new ones are like. I also had someone tell me the valving has been slightly revised and they are now a bit smoother. I believe the top adjusters still require the allen key like they always have.

$1850 to the first guy with money in hand. I'll even give away a set of 800lb Hyperco springs with them(might not be able to use them but you can always sell them)

That was my first thought when I saw it. I think only European countries who doesn't need cup holder.

Matt or interested buyers, I can polish out your hardtop to make it like new again.

This weekend I'm attending the Ptuning dyno day and starting to detail the rx7. Next weekend finish detailing rx7. Then planning to start working for customers again the weekend of 3/24. Hope all this good weather holds out. I have a new buffer I'm excited to try.

Dan sent me some pictures of his other work...looks like pretty quality stuff.

So are you switching to W2W or just want the additional safety of a cage?
Hey, someone more type A than me!

Both!

Tell Dan you saw my cage...
