Reinforcement for a bend or junction made from bent sheet metal with a U shape the thickness of which must not be less than 1.0 mm.
The ends of this gusset (point E) must be situated at a distance from the top of the angle (point S) of between 2 to 4 times the outer diameter of the biggest of the tubes joined.
A cut‐out is permitted at the top of the angle but its radius (R) must be no greater than 1.5 times the outer diameter of the biggest of the tubes joined.
The flat sides of the gusset may have a hole the diameter of which must not be greater than the outer diameter of the biggest of the tubes joined.
8.3 Specifications
8.3.1 Basic structure
The base structure must be made according to one of the following designs :
* Base structure 1 (Drawing 253‐1)
1 main rollbar
1 front rollbar
2 longitudinal members
2 backstays
6 mounting feet
* Base structure 2 (Drawing 253‐2)
2 lateral rollbars
2 transverse members
2 backstays
6 mounting feet
* Base structure 3 (Drawing 253‐3)
1 main rollbar
2 lateral half‐rollbars
1 transverse member
2 backstays
6 mounting feet
The vertical part of the main rollbar must be as close as possible to the inner side panels of the bodyshell and must have only one bend
between its lower part and its upper part.
The pillar of a front rollbar (or the front pillar of a lateral rollbar or of a half‐rollbar) must follow the windscreen pillars as close as possible and have only one bend between its lower part and its upper part.
The following connections must be situated at the roof level :
* Longitudinal members to the front and main rollbars
* Transverse members to the lateral rollbars
* Semi‐lateral rollbar to the main rollbar
There must be no more than 4 removable connections at the roof level.
The backstays must be attached at the roof level and near the top outer bends of the main rollbar, on both sides of the car, possibly by means of dismountable joints.
They must form an angle of at least 30° with the vertical, must run rearwards and be straight and as close as possible to the inner side panels of the bodyshell.
8.3.2 Design
Once the base structure is defined, it must be completed with compulsory members and reinforcements (see Article 253‐8.3.2.1), to which optional members and reinforcements may be added (see Article 253‐8.3.2.2).
Unless explicitly permitted and unless dismountable joints are used in compliance with Article 253‐8.3.2.4, all members and tubular reinforcements must be single pieces.
8.3.2.1 Compulsory members and reinforcements
8.3.2.1.1 Diagonal member
The cage must have two diagonal members on the main rollbar according to Drawing 253‐7.
Members must be straight and may be removable.
The lower end of the diagonal must join the main rollbar no further than 100 mm from the mounting foot (see Drawing 253‐52 for the measurement).
The upper end of the diagonal must join the main rollbar no further than 100 mm from its junction with the backstay.
8.3.2.1.2 Doorbars
Longitudinal members must be fitted on each side of the vehicle according to Drawings 253‐9, 253‐10 and 253‐11.
Drawings may be combined.
One longitudinal member may be added to each of the designs shown in Drawings 253‐9, 253‐10 and 253‐11.
The design must be identical on both sides.
For competitions without co‐driver, members may be fitted on the driver's side only and it is not compulsory for the design to be identical on both sides.
They may be removable.
The side protection must be as high as possible, but its upper attachment point must not be higher than half the height of the
door opening measured from its base.
If these upper attachment points are located in front of or behind the door opening, this height limitation applies to the corresponding intersection of the member and the door opening (side view).
In the case of Drawing 253‐9, it is recommended that the lower attachment points of the members be directly onto the longitudinal member of the bodyshell/chassis and that at least one part of the "X" be a single‐piece.
The connection of the doorbars to the windscreen pillar reinforcement (Drawing 253‐15) is authorised.
8.3.2.1.3 Roof reinforcement
The upper part of the safety cage must be reinforced with members according to one of Drawings 253‐12, 253‐13 and 253‐14.
The members may follow the curve of the roof.
For competitions without co‐drivers, in the case of Drawing 253‐12 only, only one diagonal member may be fitted but its front connection must be on the driver’s side.
The ends of the members must be less than 100 mm from the junction between rollbars and members of the base structure (not applicable to the top of the V formed by reinforcements in Drawings 253‐13 and 253‐14).
Junction of tubes at the top of the V : If the tubes do not join each other, the distance between them must not be more than 100 mm at their connection with the rollbar
or the transverse member.
8.3.2.1.4 Windscreen pillar reinforcement
It must be fitted on each side of the front rollbar if dimension "A" is greater than 200mm (Drawing 253‐15).
It may be bent on condition that it is straight in side view and that the angle of the bend does not exceed 20°.
Its upper end must be less than 100 mm from the junction between the front (lateral) rollbar and the longitudinal (transverse) member.
Its lower end must be less than 100 mm from the (front) mounting foot of front (lateral) rollbar (see Drawing 253‐52 for the measurement).
8.3.2.1.5 Reinforcement of bends and junctions
The junctions between :
* The diagonal members of the main rollbar
* The roof reinforcements (configuration of Drawing 253‐12 only)
* The doorbars (configuration of Drawing 253‐9 only)
* The doorbars and the windscreen pillar reinforcement (Drawing 253‐15) must be reinforced by a minimum of 2 gussets complying with Article 253‐8.2.14.
If the doorbars and the windscreen pillar reinforcement are not situated in the same plane, the reinforcement may be made of fabricated sheet metal, provided it complies with dimensions in Article 253‐8.2.14.
8.3.2.2 Optional members and reinforcements
Unless otherwise stated in Article 253‐8.3.2.1, members and reinforcements shown in Drawings 253‐16 to 253‐21 and 253‐23 to 253‐33 are optional.
They must be welded or installed by means of dismountable joints (see Article 8.3.2.4).
All members and reinforcements mentioned above may be used separately or combined with one another.
8.3.2.2.1 Backstay diagonals (Drawings 253‐20 and 253‐21)
The configuration of Drawing 253‐22 is compulsory if a roof reinforcement complying with Drawing 253‐14 is used.
8.3.2.2.2 Front suspension mounting points (Drawing 253‐25)
The extensions must be connected to the front suspension top mounting points.
8.3.2.2.3 Transverse members (Drawings 253‐26 to 253‐30)
Transverse members fitted on the main rollbar or between the backstays may be used for the safety harness mountings in accordance with Article 253‐6.2 (use of dismountable joints prohibited in this case).
For members shown on Drawings 253‐26 and 253‐27, the angle between the central leg and the vertical must be at least 30°.
The transverse member fitted on the front rollbar may be placed as high as possible but its lower edge must not be higher than the uppermost point of the dashboard.
It must not be positioned below the steering column.
8.3.2.2.4 Reinforcement of bends or junctions (Drawings 253‐31 to 253‐33)
Reinforcements must be made of tubes or bent‐sheet metal with U shape complying with Article 253‐8.2.14.
The thickness of the components forming a reinforcement must not be less than 1.0 mm.
The ends of the tubular reinforcements must not be more than half way down or along the members to which they are attached, except for those of the junction of the front rollbar, which may join the junction of the doorbar /front rollbar.

In the USA your speed would need a 6 point BUT I am not sure if the bar in Europe will allow removable door bars... you will need to check yourself.
Great! Now, have you had any customers use this on a c5 with the convertible hard top?
Asking for fitment issues. I like the fact that cage is removable unless I read wrong, and I like my convertible but plan on adding the hardtop.

The bar works great with the covertable top but I’m unsure what the headroom differnce is for the factory Convertible vs the hardtop. I actually love the way the hard tops look
