Looking at fitting a full lightweight roll cage to my TVR Griff 500 (prefered North West area), who would you guys recommend with regards to building/fitting.
Also what would be the best lightweight metal you could use and how heavy would a full cage be.

Cheers

Mark

One of the sprinters (Matt Oakley) has a full cage in his Griff. I can forward an email to him, if you wish?

Yes I know Matt's car, I believe it was Caged based in the South West who fitted his.

Custom Cages did my Snoot (pictures on their website) and can't fault their work and were a lot cheaper than Mr Short.

Have used Roll Centre and Safety Devices in the past, then fitted our first Custom Cages weld in kit. Never gone to anyone else since.
