I did a dry run of fitting the roll cage, oh man I had no idea how much work was involved in fitting a multi-point roll cage. Has any one got any advice or things to watch out for when fitting.

Any way here are some pictures,

Should be doing some more work over the next fews days. I think I will go and purchase a Mig welder as well...

I have also ordered some more bits today from MiniSport and Rallynuts:-

Monte Carlo heated front screen, grooved hi-spec cooperS discs, sportx rally exhaust system, weld in OMP seat mounts, OMP spare wheel holder, ring eye bolts and FIA spec plates for the 4 point harnesses.

So I will mock up the rest of the rollcage and get that ready to weld in the plates and the other multi-point sections, then I should be ok to get the seats in to get the seat mounts welded in

A bit more work carried out on the mini thhis weekend, got all of the cage in place ready to get every thing marked up for drilling and welding.





I'm not looking forward to drilling all of the holes in the door/dash bar sleeve's, thats about 44 holes I have to drill   

Thanks to Mark for the subframe. I did a spot of welding this weekend as well, I copied some of the subframe strengthening pictures from the Bill Sollis book





(please not comments on my welding lol)

A few more bits turned up, like these weld in seat mounts



Any way cheers for now.
