I know! but I couldn't wait to see what it was

The cage is manufactured by these guys http://www.wiechers-sport.de/ but I ordered it through a contact at http://www.kscimport.nl/ They were extremely helpful and very patient since I had a lot of questions regarding the sunroof / non-sunroof fit and not properly understanding the crazy NL order form

I've been mulling over about painting it or leaving it black. Same goes for the seat backs. Do you think painting it red will look too garish or 'stand out' given that the interior will be the usual all black appbiz lightweight carpet set, doors panels and PP leather seats?

Same here plus matching harnesses. Enough of a colour accent for me.

I was wondering when somebody was going to bring this subject up and one that I discussed with the manufacturer prior to ordering This *IS* the RHD one. If you like your brain jelly where it is you really don't want the cross member directly behind your head. It also permits a slightly more rearward position of the drivers seat should it be needed - which in this case it is It is unlikely the passenger seat will require to be so rearward.

I see also that the Carrera cup 964s are all LHD, but have cages the other way, so the diagonal is behind the passenger seat, not the driver

Looks like you have got it on the correct side from that
