Your hoops really look nice! How much were they and did that include installation?
I have been considering hoops in my '02 M.Y. roadster and have talked to Steve (270) 842-4409 at MMRC up near B.G., Ky. He sells them for $500.00 or $600.00 installed. I was planning to have him install them while I was in B.G. the week before last but I was too busy to get with him.
For those of you who have hoops, do they obstruct your ability to recline your passenger seat like when on a trip and trying to snooze? I don't want to have to sit up straight all the time if I'm trying to nap.

Yep, I'm wondering the same thing. I'm needing some hoops myself. What is MMRC?

I don't know what MMRC means but when I talked to Steve on the phone he said they mostly build race cars. You can contact him at the phone number (270) 842-4409. The thing that impressed me about his hoops were that he said they install without removing the gas tanks.

I'd definitely do a bolt on for sure which by the looks of the attached bracket must help more than just looks in a roll over.
There's no way I want my vert to look like a dune buggy w/ a complete roll bar or cage.
It would be nice if the GM folks would incorporate those pop up bars like Merc/BMW does for their verts. Nice and concealed until you need them.
