I have found a vitesse  roll bar at mums and was thinking of using it as a front under dash bar on my 3a

Will try to remember to do that tomorrow

Cut it in half and widen it with the tube you cut off the legs that are too long?

I could Peter but as I am considering additional safety features I think I need a continuous tube. 
it was a gamble that I could “re-purpose” the vitesse bar. 
 

There are people out there that will bend to order.

Hi Hammish, just to let you know I have a full roll cage which was taken out of my Tr3a recently before I sold the car

 Full cage consists of rear hoop with detachable cross tube, door bars, and front hoop which goes from chassis mounts and goes up A post and continues the line of front screen and returns to rear hoop and has a under dash cross tube. Ready to fit complete with all fitting  perfect fit under hardtop. If interested let me know. Supplied by TRE. Excellent cage offering full protection and rigidity.
