rolllcage with soft top on?
This is so dumb! I don't understand all the talk back and forth about the helmet with a cage! from all the pictures I see the bars on the side go no lower than where the side windows/top meet. Unless your huge you should have any problems, I'm 6ft and my head doesn't go that high.

Here's a quick cell pic of my roll bar, notice its really impossible to hit your head. Its really bolted on there, i mean you need some one to put all they're weight just to be able to tighten the bolts behind the seats.

i'm thinking about getting the whole cage. i hardly drive my car anyways so i dont care.
i'm not bought on the hitting your head on the cage, unless some people are driving in stilettos..

idk what type of approval it has but after seeing that silver s2000 that flipped over a mountain at WTD and the driver walked away because of the safety21 rollbar I was convinced, plus Id imagine it would make the chasis stiffer in a side collsion.
there's miata flipped in the mt without anything and the driver came out unhurt, but i am not counting on "luck", in order to be FIA approved they go thru proven tests
enlighten me if i am wrong, what would a roll bar/hoo(not cage) do in a side hit?
The cusco "cage"'s frontal bar look very dangerously close to the left leg, i never sit in one but from the picture umm.... A proper cage will have much more clearance(at expense of interior trim) for the head and leg area
