Roll cage

Hello,

was wondering if you could help me with the following: I need a decent roll cage for a 1303 (let;s say a 6-point minimum), but don;t know much about them. It must be something real, (not for show only), don't know if it can be from aluminium or definitely chrome moly. It must be bolt-on and the rear seats are not an issue. Is any manufacturer across the Europe that has something interesting?

Thank you
JIMP

If you really need a roll cage for safety get 4130 chromemolly, pass on aluminum-it's not strong enough.

Can't help with a source in europe though.

heigo

Has someone ever contact Heigo.de?
I sent many emails, but never got an answer back.
I'm not so good at german (as english...), that's why I wanted to send a mail.
Has someone already bought a rollcage from them? I'ld really appreciate a feedback about this factory, the shipping ant the final product.
Thanks a lot
Nicolas

Wiechers and Heigo.. are the most common trades..

Heigo is the nicest looking bolt-in-cage I have seen till now..

Thank you all for your help. I'll try on their websites to see what I can find. About the aluminium issue, I thought so that is a little week for safety but I wanted to be sure.
