ok everything worked out, literally stick the cage into that ditch, and it will just slide the whole hoop back, it does give extra leverage like Arin said it would. side bars took a bit of work, was kinda tricky, when you cut your carpet in the front of the car, there will be styrofoam (spelling?) sitting there, just pull it out, and stick the cage into that ditch, and there will be room to work with. cusco musta did a lot of planning and stripped a whole Z just to build this cage o.o

tomorrow will be a full drilling day. -_-

(ps. Arin im gnna Pm you if i get into a problem =D)

Pics had to be deleted for legal purposes. hahaha

I think Chris had pics of his install though, install if fairly simple except for the main hoop, you'll have lots of fun installing that thing. Just remember, it goes in through the drivers or passengers side and not the trunk. Good luck and have lots of beer!

I have some I can pull up, or take for you if you need them.

The title is correct though. Install is NOOOTTTT fun. Took me all day long.
