Roll Bar that works with MX5 seats (type with separate head rests)

[robbieg]

I am looking for a road roll bar (doesn't need a harness) that will work with Mx5 Mk 2 seats (the type with the separate headrest) in in the sense of allowing them to push back on their runners and recline (tall passenger) and will allow a hardtop to fit and the soft top to be pulled up. I quite like the look of the Revington option which it says works with a hard and soft top but it would be good to hear from someone who has one fitted with the type of Mx5 seats I have. If you don't have a Revington one but have one that works with the above criteria could you advise the make please? Thanks.

Robbie,

I am a satisfied customer of "Protection &Performance " a specialist roll cage maker in Lancashire.    Their main business is military and expedition use, but they have made a custom roll cage and door bars for me, at short notice and for reasonable cost.    They have recently been bought by Safety Devices, the well known roll cage firm, which may be planning them as their bespoke department.     If you can't find one off the shelf, give them a call: Home - Protection & Performance Ltd (ppcages.com)  http://www.ppcages.com/

That’s sad as I suspect it’ll go all corporate and lose that flexibility to help out enthusiasts at a reasonable cost.
