You're welcome.
It bolts on exctly the same as a rollbar, and then you have the two bolts which pass through a boss just below the rear of the windscreen scuttle.
I rang Bruce at Arch before I bought it, to make sure my chassis had the forward boss's, (My chassis was in U.K. at the time, and I live in Spain).
As I understand it, most chassis have the boss's put in already, but to be sure, you'd have to drill the rivets out along the top of the sill, and ease the skin away to see if it's there.
As an aside, the cage dropped straight on. No tugging or pulling to make it fit. Perfect!smile

There must be something wrong with it
It's an Arch chassis, not one of new new weld spattered made by Robert things. smile
So I suppose Caged have made a few before. tongue out

Nicodema, I put my name on one of the Arch chassis, before they switched over to the Steel Fab ones. I've had it sitting in storage since 2007. (I've been busy with other projects)
Steel Fabs, I believe, are owned by CC. They certainly have the same address. (Kennet road, Dartford).
As I understand it, Arch still make the race car chassis, and the CSR chassis.
I think the first Metric chassis were produced by Caged, but as a seperate part of the business, and were bought out by someone else. (Corvin enterprises comes to mind, but I've forgotten all the details now, and I stand to be corrected)
I'm sure CC would still supply an Arch chassis, at a price. rolleyes
