the extra point is a re-bar that goes connects the two rear arches. if you see a pic of VeilsideAP1's car you'll see what I mean as he has the extra re-bar.

it does reinforce the brace better and offer more rigidy but IMO it does block the rear view. when James 1st got the cage I sat in the car and when I looked in the rear view all I could see was the re-bar.

but it's a matter of opinion... some like it and some don't
hope that helps

Am I correct in assuming you will lose use of the "secret compartment" when a rollbar is installed? It looks like it from the pics... Not that it has an influence on my decision in getting one... Just curious...

I may go w/ the Spoon one just cuz of the name ... Are there any modifications/cutting required on the 4pt Spoon/Cusco/Safety 21?

Thanks in advance

Paul

You dont lose the secret compartment unless you get a harness bar. Although, most people do get the bar because the purpose for them getting the bar is to run aftermarket seats with harnesses.
