Default Roll bar/cage for dual use street/track 993 coupe?

I have a 993 cab now, dual use street/family use but not DD and track in Red (not club race). I have the DAS bolt-in rollbar which is pretty easy to install/remove given the top gets out of the way.

I'm considering switching to a coupe. Is there as simple of an option, or is there a rollbar/cage option where part of it is bolt in, such that I can easily (aka 1 person in under an hour) install/remove AND have use of the rear seats safely for children?

Thanks,

Heigo makes roll bars & cages that have bolt in pieces.

I used to have Heigo roll bar and was able to install & remove it with both bucket seats in place.

Was it ok for PCA DE? A friend in Cali had a beautiful bolt in Heigo on his 993 cab and they nixed it for DE.

Come to think of it, I think he had the aluminum one.

That aside...where do they bolt? Do they use existing points like the DAS, or do they require drilling/welding somewhere?

How could it not be ok for DE?

It's not ok for PCA club racing but I don't see a reason why not for DE.
