Default Pics of my roll bar install....

Here are some pics of my first modification to my car. It was tough cutting up a new car, but it was worth it! Install came out really nice I think. Fitment and quality is great.

Hard Dog roll bar. Welded diagonal and welded lowered harness bar.

i see one pic that looks like the top is up, but the car didn't look all the way put back together.

are you able to retain stock use of the soft top? or do you have to convince it to go up? that bar looks tall.

thanks,

Im assuming you're going to use the lower harness bar when you remove the rear bulk head, get seats, & harness?

Nice work! With this setup, do you wind up permanently removing the secret compartment, OEM roll hoops, upright center console and interior goodies behind the seats? Any pics of the interior after everything was put back into place?

Yeah that's the plan....Right now the seatbelts are mounted to the bulkhead and on the roll bar.

Amazingly....It works just like stock. No convincing. It goes up and down as if the roll bar is not there. From the outside if you touch the top you can feel the bar right below it. But you cant see any indentions from the outside. Very nice fitment.

I added a pic of the interior right before i put the seats back in.

The only thing I did not reuse is the roll hoops and covers. I did a lot of cutting as you can see, to reuse the rest of the plastic.

On the center console I had to cut the under side of the secret compartment to clear the harness bar. The lid wont open due to the diagonal anyways. So basically the only thing i'm no longer using is the secret compartment lid.

Thanks for the nice comments guys. I spent a lot of time on this haha!
