Weld In Cage/Roll Bar

I've been looking into getting a Cage/Roll bar for my 98 Base. I had an Autopower race bar in my 98 Sh, and it really stiffened the heck out of the car, not to mention, it saved my car from crumbling like a tin can when I was rear ended on the express way.

I have access to a mig/tig welder, and know how to weld, so I was figuring I could save some money by buying a weld in, instead of a bolt in cage/bar.

Just wondering if anyone knew of any sites besides ones that sell Autopower cages? I was shown a site a while ago that had weld in roll bars for 175 bucks...

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Have one custom made if you want the best fit. That way the bar can be made to fit very tightly, and you can have the harness bar made to your height.

Some pictures of my cage, and other misc. things:

It fits VERY tightly. No way would an Autopower bar even come close!
