the general thing to do (if not cutting the roof and sometimes even if you do chop the roof out) is to chop a few inches off of the feet of the cage to gain access to the hard to reach bits. then you lift the cage up and it is mounted on "blocks" ...or as they suggest you could use a hole saw on the floor to let the cage fall lower down than normally (below the floor), then weld it and lift it back up into the car before welding the plate underneath the tubes/feet. |

I'm going to go for a 6 point with rear seats, not a 13..., which would mean fully stripped.

Supposably the options are not optional! I emailed them a while ago and they said that all the dotted lines were included. Looking at it, it looks like the dotted lines are the difference between the mig cage and the other one that isnt historic one.
