Cool Re: Roll Bar Removal

I agree!
What I really liked about the vert was the roll bar with the logo on it!

(I guess "beauty is in the eye of the holder")
(That's why they make hack saws! )

You can always put the belt in the seat itself, like many SUVs do.

I have seen one that rolled over twice, and the Sport bar and the windshield frame do act as a roll bar in combination with each other, the cover was torn off the bar and it was scrapped up pretty bad, but it kept it's shape.

Wouldn't it hurt to catch that in the face during an accident?

I'm sure one could make a "space cage" analogy to the roll bar. I expect it might take up some rear seat room. Maybe some day I'll run the numbers and get to it.

As for now, I'm enjoying my new ride!

I guess you have never seen a airbag deployed on a PT, the faceplate does not come off, it is like a hinged door, it breaks open along the edge like a flap on a box, and flips open to allow the bag to deploy,
