Not seen this one before. Theres been a few on the bay before, some which follow the roof line (when its up) and some which are more of a 'twin hoop' design which follow the seats more like the one on this page

Undecided which one to go for!

There is one on ebay at moment. Doesn't have the diagonal though. Think its new by Rollbar Centre. Similar to one on a car I've acquired. Not obtrusive.

TR Lane started with TVRs and now concentrates on MX 5s.

Here's the link: http://www.trlanefabs.co.uk/CUSTOMER-CARS.html

I have one in my Chimaera, a Griff would be the same - see linky picture.

Can of worms!

Hi, lo, too far forward, too far back, I'll bang my head, it's not high enough.

Let the battle commence smile


I've a TR Lane bar, the highest one following the roof line.

Do check how high a roll bar is before you part with cash, some are a joke!

As high as you can get it Steve.

Tight under the roof line is just about good enough for me with Elise seats bolted direct to the floor.

Any further back and the bar height starts dropping down to clear the roof/ struts to.
