Hey guys, I have a Cusco bolt in cage which I am having problems getting secured in car. The two front points I can mount pretty easily, but the back two bars are giving me problems. Where do they seat, the angles of the foot on the bar is not coming out correctly. Is it suppose to mount on rear fender well or higher up.......this is driving nuts, this should be a bolt up and go.

Anyone have any pictures of one mounted in their S14, thanks for the help.

could be wrong, but thats what it looks like.

Supposed to go on the rear fender behind the plastic panel.

the rear arms look like they belong in an S13 hatch

Even my cusco cage for my old hatch didnt have the arms there. you had to cut a hole in interior panel and run it there. you didnt have to remove the seats.

Yeah the rear bars are definitely wrong, they must tie into a structural part of the chassis which that is not. Wise man once said; "if your cage is painted blue and has hinges, you are going to die" but Cusco's other stuff is usually awesomeness in a box....

Cusco usually has nice stuffs but i dont know why they made this roll bar. look bling bling but you will die.

Move the main hoop further back and swing the legs out. The Main hoop should be slightly behind the b pillar.

I can't see where you have everything though. Your pictures suck
