I really like that idea, but as you can see from the pics I've got speaker pods in there that I really don't want to have to redu. As well, the bar would be a definate shin breaker in a severe accident, and would also be a heck of a lot heavier and require more holes to be drilled. I do think if I had a full cage that is EXACTLY what I'd do though.

I got these high strength stainless T-bolt clamps from a local hydrolics place. I'm planning on using both of them on the steering column to clamp a bracket onto it. I should have the whole thing done this weekend, so look for some new pics then.
