not a bad idea i will have to see how neat that can be achieved , the engineer has stressed that the tubes must be 100% welded all around and tucked up as far as possible into the roof cavity so they can be trimed over and hidden, as there is a ADR rule on head clearance , it's tight but looks like it can be done.

just hole saw into the cabin wall the size of your roof bars and have them goin through then weld around the bar where it passes through the cabin wall. should seal it and will also brace the cabin wall/roof etc. into the cage making the chassis stiffer again. just an idea, might not work in practice but worth looking into i guess

that would be ok if it was just a half cage , but then how do i attach the front legs and roof bars , the whole point of this is to have a full "chassis strengthener" welded into the chassis as inconspicuious as possible ,the 'a' pillar bars are the key to a stiff chassis and to tie in the front strut towers to the main body.

just run the main loop on the back of the cabin wall so it's not inside at all, it'll recess nicely into the indenting of the cabin wall.
