Any idea why they put three holes in the plates and not four?

I think the SCCA rules only require three bolts in the main hoop.

^ if you mean the harness bar, yes it would.
Post #1, first two pictures: 1. Option to buy just the roll bar without a harness bar. 2. Harness bar is removable if you opt for the roll bar with the harness bar.

^ Correct at this point. Sorry about that, Autopower took measurements for the liftback only!
@ mazilla: 2 rollbar-only in stock, 2 rollbar + harness bar left of four ordered. I will be re-ordering these as they sell out, but it does take 3-4 four weeks to get more in stock.

Quote:
A roll cage is a specially constructed frame built in (or sometimes around) the cab of a vehicle to protect its occupants from being injured in an accident, particularly in the event of a roll-over. Roll cages are used in nearly all purpose-built racecars, and in most cars modified for racing. There are many different roll cage designs depending on the application, hence different racing organizations have differing specifications and regulations. They also help to stiffen the chassis, which is desirable in racing applications. A roll bar is a single bar behind the driver that provides moderate roll-over protection. Due to the lack of a protective top, some modern convertibles utilize a strong windscreen frame acting as a roll bar.[1] Also, a roll hoop may be placed behind both headrests (usually one on older cars), which is essentially a roll bar spanning the width of a passenger's shoulders. A newer form of rollover protection, pioneered on the Mercedes-Benz R129 in 1989, is deployable roll hoops that are normally hidden within the body of a car. When sensors detect an imminent rollover, the roll hoops quickly extend and lock in place. Cars that have a deployable rollover protection system include the Peugeot 307 CC [2], Volvo C70, Mercedes-Benz SL 500, and Jaguar XK [3]. Roll bars are also used historically on row crop tractors, and roll cages are common as part of the cab on modern tractors.

This is a 4-point hoop, so it's stronger than the "roll hoop" mentioned in the Wiki.
The harness version gives a super strong and correctly angled point of attachment for harnesses - for those people using aftermarket seats and harnesses, it's strongly recommended.

LOL, I'm actually away from the shop for a few days. I'll do a proper photoshoot when I get back.
Only one more roll bar + harness bar available guys!
