FirmwareWorx Scion TC 4 Point Roll Cage -- WARNING 56K!!! --
Well I just got my 4 point roll cage mounted and installed at HIN Los Angeles hopefully a few of you saw it.... It still need to get firmware to finish the welding on the cage to the frame... this is the first production model made and plenty are being made as we speak.. they custom powdercoat it to the color u guys want. Also there will be templates on how to properly cut ur rear fabric inserts to allow it to sit flush and clean in the car.
The bottom and middle bars are removable as well as the rear side bars.. i don't have the bolts properly in the middle and top bars since i still have to take this cage to get welded up to the frame.
It goes around the rear seats and follows along the rear hatch side panels so it doesn't go through the rear seat panels fabric like autopowers.
The removeable connections are unique, there solid metal and very strong.
also the front seats are fully reclineable as well and the rear seats still fold down.
so tell me what u guys think.

Pure Sweetness and Many Kudos to you,the providers of the roll cage, and to you again for such a gorgeous girlfriend. Let's hope we don't hear a story from you that the roll cage does indeed work, heh.

I like the rear design concept, but instead of a small hole in the rear panels next to the seats, you lose your rear trunk cover and have to modify your trunk panels significantly, much more than the little hole I have...
nice looking, glad to see something else out there roll bar wise...

This thread covers some of the reasons roll bars are neccesary... especially if running seats and harnesses.

I wanted to upgrade seats and harnesses, and knew to do it safely, I'd need a roll bar setup...

I'm sure he's building up the car, so this is a great step.

With both the firmware and the Autopower you should be able to use the back seats without a problem... My horizontal and cross bar are removable, as their bars are removable as well... so you should be good there...
^ Firmware, please look into sponsorship with Scionlife, as you must be a SL sponsor to post prices or sell commercially, (It's quite reasonable to be a month to month sponsor as well)

No need for CF on the interior... LoL... the plastic is light enough... the side panel is a little troublesome to get off now, but nothing hideous...
I like that design, would like to see what the trunk cover and trunk trim pieces look like with this kit as well...
