also, contradictory to what was posted below and another post a couple months ago on this board, that overly bashed a chassis builder for not fully welding the cage on the halo attachment points. the cage does not have to be fully welded. as long as the cage is properly fit and welded properly 3/4's around the tube and corner gussets are added then it will pass tech with flying colors! gussets can be in the form of small corner plates or small diameter round tube. this is how chassis builders are able to tuck the cages up to the headliner real tight on cars without cutting holes in the floor! those silly little gusset plate or small diameter roll bar tubing welded in the corners aren't just there for looks.

don't let the flashy paint fool you!
