hi, been looking at TR land Roll bars of my mk2

Are the
GPD ( single bracing)
GPV (double bracing)
GP (no cross member)

http://www.trlanefabs.co.uk/MX5-ROLL-BA ... CAGES.html

all the same basic design & height ?? just the additional cross bars ?? some pics online make the GP one look taller than the others.

Also how do these bars compare to this one ???? http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Mazda-MX5-Roll-B ... SwEppUT4KQ anyone hear of them ??
There around 50 bottle of beer cheaper ATM & have harness point built into

Also do the extra bracing bars restrict visibility much ????

Bought one for my Mk2 and in my opinion they are way over the top. Extremely heavy and seriously restrict visibility. Plus they really are not great for attaching a harness to.

Just on a side note some of the TR Lane bars suit plastic rear window and a different one suits glass rear window.Its to do with the height of the diagional?? bar so glass can fold below it

on the website they all say there suitable for glass & plastic windows (but need to double check, was also reading on Mx5 nutz that some don't work with the hard top side latchs,

I was think the same on the rear visibility front, aesthetically the TR lane ones look neater,

nice Mk2, show us the rest of your fleet !
