Will do, if you PM me your number i can always txt you. Think its Tufty whos asked me to keep him informed by txt just incase he misses anything lol

Will have to make note of everyones real names at some point too.

The 106 style cage seems to be much more popular then than the saxo one

Will PM the number now, I much prefer the 106 cage as mentioned before with the rear mounting points being on the floor rather than the arch and again the front following the A-Pillar for that little longer.

Very true, think those 2 points have been the deciding factor for most of us

SaxoMuffin · 19th July 2010, 17:41

Yeah apart from that there isn't really anything else that separates them

Just sucks this may push back my bodies going on grr lol... Should still be OK..

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet, thanks Matt !

I'm good to pay right at the end of August - I'm back in the UK on the 28th August so will pay on the 30th/31st

I won't be on the phone/Internet for 15th-28th August so will check this thread before I go and be ready to pay as soon as I get back !!!

Looking forward to getting the cage, they are by far the best bolt in/off the shelf cages for the Saxo

Thanks again for sorting it Matt !!

So the 106 cage is the better one but the dash needs a slight trim - correct?

Still can't commit as Im still not guarenteed work for the next two months (downside of being self-employed) but will *hopefully* jump in at the last minute.

Correct,

106 one requires a slight dash trim on a Saxo but it is a preferred mounting point for the front leg as it follows the A pillar further down. Also the rear section bolts onto the boot floor near the beam mount which is a more structurally strong area than the rear arch like the saxo one does.

To be fair there is no difference atall in the chassis, can understand the front leg difference due to the dash clearance, but the rear of the car is identical so its strange why they have varied it.

Everyones opting for the 106 one to go into their Saxo so far though it seems

Still plenty of time to jump in. Ill be sending the final list on Monday 23rd August, with the first 50% to be paid anytime between then and before/on Tuesday 31st August.

Hope you have a good spree of good work before then Chris

Chr15 · 20th July 2010, 18:50

me too lol, work tomorrow and thurs/fri afternoons and 3 days next week but god knows after that

ideally i didnt want to do any cutting but a custom dash could be next

Im intending on fitting a 106 dash anyway

its much easier to lighten than a Saxo one and im hoping to have my wiring all redone with the fuses set into the dash, the 106 one gives a perfect flat section on the bit where the pass airbag panel goes or the centre console being flat to do it

Chr15 · 20th July 2010, 19:08

Wow, that is planning! 106 dash a straight fit then? Not keen on it myself.

If you're at Trax, Ill get you a drink as a thanks. Same goes to Ross

I'm not one to miss a free drink

I'll be at Trax

adamskiTNR · 21st July 2010, 18:28

You know who's 106 that is? Rally car of course.

Harv · 21st July 2010, 18:33

Do you guys mind if I take myself out of this - not that I'm saying I don't want one anymore, its more of a case of not disappointing you guys if I take myself out at a later date. 80% sure I will be having one but I would rather not be on the list as I'm not a definite 100% now due to deciding to go to Uni this year and actually do something with my life. If there was only 5 of us I wouldn't let you guys down and stay in but as there is 9 or so of us, 1 less won't really matter will it. Don't count me out of it though, i'll most likely be paying my 50% deposit on the 30 or 31st August if everything goes to plan, but just incase it doesn't I would rather not be on the list if you get my drift
