Just a quick one, can anyone tell me if it's possible to fit 306 door cards with rollcage door bars in place? Any pics would be useful.________________________________________

Depends on who's cage it is, most weld in ones seem to run too close to the doors (Quite rightly) but I believe one of the bolt ins, Safety devices or OMP gives enough clearance to run std door cards.  ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Fantastic, thanks Daveyboy. It's an SD one we have so hopefully they'll fit. ________________________________________ WANTED: Mint crystal headlamps |

Yeah if you're careful the SD one fits with the door cards in place (it's the door pockets that are really the issue)..________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

PM Dennis (Russian Guy) I'm pretty sure he was running a cage with door cards. If it's just a centimetre or so clearance you need get a big ratchet strap between the door bars and tweak them in a little, just don't go too mad as if you kink them the cage is buggered. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Yeah Denis and I have the same cage. He kindly gave me the headsup about the door cards, as he's had to cut his (he went to close the doors for the first time after cage was in and  )You'll also lose the glovebox (no big loss, admittedly!) unless you want to hack that up so it still opens with the leg of the cage in the way.. and have to come up with a solution for the sun-visors to attach to the cage rather than the headlining. ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
