Default Shops To Install Roll Cages

I am considering getting a Cusco Safety 21 4-6 Points Roll Cage. I was wondering if there's any shops that you guys know of that can do this type of installation or is it even that hard to install it yourself?

I know the potential safety risks with installing a roll cage, but this is not for sure - just a consideration. Just seeing if anyone knew how to install it or knew any shops that can that have experience. Let me know, thanks!

You could install it yourself, but its a bit of work and you need the right tools. I had my cage installed at REN Motorsports in San Mateo just contact Owen and he should be able to help you out

a proper roll cage will require cutting of some plastic, and the hoops
install isnt too hard depending on what roll cage you want and how it fits (rubbing on door, dash,...)
