   I got the OMP weld in cage from kamracing then added some extra bars myself

   I'd go for a multipoint weld in CDS cage. The OMP one is Chromoly which is a thinner wall thickness and needs a better welder to fit it. I'd want better door bars and rear bracing than the basic OMP kit personally.
   You would be looking at about £950 for a full CDS cage with double door bars, bars to link to the front turrets, and decent rear protection.
   The shell will be easier to sell after as well as it can be used for competition.

   bear in mind how tall you are --as most the bars above doors will hit your helmet if you are tall --unless you drp the fixings right down for seat --but do use original mounting points for seat
   i made dropper plates so bars to mount eats were hard agianst the floor
