make sure its a bolt in

As forementioned, it has to be bolt in (thus completely removable).

Another important thing to consider is the it cannot exceed 5 points for street legal use. Finally, it requires an engineers certificate and a mod plate as well for it to be legal to use. With all that say and done, insurace wont touch you with a 20foot pole unless it's someone like Just Car...

If you plan on racing the car you need to make sure it's CAMS legal too.

Here's the CAMS regs http://www.camsmanual.com.au/pdf/gen...ule_J_Q208.pdf

I'm told it can be tricky to build a cage which is both CAMS and street legal.

I'd suggest you get an engineering firm to manage the whole project from start to finish so you can be sure it's safe and compliant.

If you liked that, the rest of the CAMS manual has it's own website here http://www.camsmanual.com.au/general.asp

I'm told there's a program to make the thing simpler but fir the moment it's a confusing document to figure out.
