kirkyboy5 Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Lads and ladies, Going to get a RAC rollover bar fitted soon. Couple of questions... 1. Will Westfield fit the roll over bar when car is in there for a full service? 2. I have a locking boot, will this have to go or can they sit put the roll over bar in? Thanks Dan P.s looking forward to getting it fitted, then the Mrs wont go "if you flip it u'll kill yourself" Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Westfield do fit parts etc, so I'm sure they'd fit it for you if asked, however, how they'd fit it and if they'd do the locking cover, you'd have to ask them. There's a world of difference between some of the lovingly sculpted RAC bar fitments you see owners doing for the locking boot lid and a typical commercial, chargeable, installation. That's what you'd need to find out, can they do it to a standard you'd be happy with at a cost you'd be happy with? (I suspect some of the best boot lid installations I've seen would be truely terrifying if costed out at a decent hourly rate!) Quote
perksy Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Like Gadgetman says theres quite abit of work in doing the boot box mod especially if the westfield lid is fitted Its not one you want to mess up, especially when you see the price from westfield Quote
kirkyboy5 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 Brilliant, hahaha i'll ask westfield about what they would do/charge in relation to RAC rollover bar. How much do u recon were talking for them fitting it? Are there any other places to buy an RAC rollover bar from or is it suggested I go through Westfield? Cheers Dan Quote
peterg Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Fitting a Westfield braced rollbar yourself is easy - but have you considered the newer sexier Plays-Kool bar instead? http://www.plays-kool.co.uk/acatalog/Rollbars___Cages.html Altering the bootbox is a faff and a lot of people just stick a flat panel on there instead but if you want to retain a proper boot then there are build photos showing how others have done it... Can I be the first on the new forum to say *do a search* Quote
kirkyboy5 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 "Can I be the first on the new forum to say *do a search* hahaha i suppose I should have done, im from Wolverhampton though...too lazy to mess around with searches The new roll over bar looks good from plays kool, might end up getting that me thinks Quote
