Very friendly people, top quality work and fast turn-around (ordered it Tuesday, arrived this morning). Total cost including labour and P&P £169. Highly recommended if you're looking for a CDS roll bar as opposed to ERW!

One question however - I have enough length on my rear stay tubes to take them from the centre of each corner of the main hoop, rather than in line with the chassis rear stay bracket mounts (as per the book). I am considering doing this as it looks like it would resist side loading better, and I am thinking that I might upgrade my roll bar into a roll cage at some point - in which case my rear stay tubes would then line up with the tubes connecting front roll hoop to rear roll hoop. Any input/opinions on this please?

Thanks for the info I'll give them a call.
