[DeTomaso] Asa's installing the roll cage

[Julian Kift]

My test fitting of a Byers cage looked similar in the rear brace area at first until I pulled back the carpet and let it sit direct on the rockers. I see from the photos you currently have it over the carpet, so it may drop down a little yet if you intend for it to bolt under the carpet.
