   Bolts in at seatbelt points using the existing bolts, on the pillars and under the rear bench. Build it inside the car, keep everything loose until together and use wd40 on the joints as a lubricant to make to easier

   You probably can fit diagonal bars if you can weld but that will remove the point of it being a showcage, as you can't sit in the back anymore then

   There are show cages that prevent the use of the rear seats. If u were to make your own cage, its not approved as a safety device and therefore counted as a show cage for insurance purposes.
