They certainly don't fit straight in and weld up like the papers say - not unless you want it to fit like a sausage in a tunnel.

This is really doing my nut in now. Jim managed to straighted the front A pillar bars so hopefully this weekend we can get some more of the cage fitted.
How ever custom cages f*cked up again and sent me the new stays too short. I think they are off the multi point cage. So another email to fix it tomorrow

They could at least make it rewritable so you can put something useful on it.

No you are all wrong. The CD is in fact a highly sophisticated tube bender and not a CD at all. If you rub it carefully on a tube you'll see it bend. I've seen Uri Geller using one on youtube Wink
