Thumbs up RSS 930 Rollbar/ Half-Cage Is In


Dell is getting my Teq bar, so I decided to pull the trigger on this RSS bar. Mike S. @ RSS was great to work with, and Leith Porsche in Cary did all of the work, including remounting my camera (with rubber lips on the mount so as to not scratch the bar) and the factory seat bracket modification.

I have some aluminum shaft collars on the way as well from McMasterCarr to keep the shoulder haress straps located correctly. (link)

Looks like they did a very nice job with the holes in the rear carpet shelf. Makes me want to buy a new piece and try again.

Do you have a detailed photo of what they did with the camera mount to avoid scratching the bar?

Thanks,
Mike

Which shaft collars did you get? (The link didn't work for me) I probably should get some for my T-eq bar too.. !

Beautiful bar and they did a great job on matching the paint. Does Schroth make yellow harnesses? Mike

But you should not need them for the Teq bar - that's what those rubber rings do....

Agreed on matching. IDK if they make Yellow, but I plan on getting Black harnesses for my next set in a year or so; mine are due in 2013 (link)
