They can't. I have the same problem on the passenger side. You have to buy the metal hoop and the plastic cover as one piece, they don't sell them separately.

Aren't those cages extremely dangerous with out padding. Your head would nail those bars if the car ever rolled. Those surely aren't legal for racing. putting your self in more danger with a supposed safety piece.

The Cusco/Safety 21 roll cages are for car show purposes only. They are not safe for road racing, autocrossing or really even daily driving. The bars are extremely close to the driver's head and there is zero padding.

Yeah, and also with the exception of the one guy with the welded cage those bolted together cages are basically just dead weight when it comes down to the purpose of it.

Heres you "dead weight" safty 21 bar after a 70+ foot fall off the road. It looks like the only part of the car that held up. Notice how none of the bars broke off and hit him in the head, I would say that that works pretty darn good for a "show purpose" roll bar. I know welded bars are better, but you guys really underestimate the cusco/safty21 bars.
