Z4M Coupe roll cage installation
The car is at Speedware this week for a cage and harness installation.
I will post some more pictures later this week. Here's a teaser picture

Did you replace the rear window as well?? If so, what was the weight saving? Did you consider replacing the whole hatch? I remember TCKline had a CF one for $1.5k.
Great job on the car! It just keeps getting better!

Looks great! Are they running the main hop through the bulkhead behind the seats or removing it all together ?

No the rear window/hatch is still stock. The TCK CF hatch is defenintely on the list of to-do's for the future.

Are you putting the rear console back in with the cage cut through it or just leaving that all out and carpeting (plan B for me when I do mine but whats looking like the better option).

This might be just enough inspiration to get me to start ripping into mine... can't wait to see more pictures.
I've got a fabrication/chassis shop about 100 feet from my desk so it's been hard enough keeping from gutting the old girl as it is!

They're the Sparco DTM RS seats with the green stitching & have been in the car for about a year now The DTMs are just awesome and they weigh a fraction of the stock seats!

Again, thank you for paving the way on this. I have been on the fence, but this really inspired me.
I like the green, it looks awesome.

Notes are being taken. This was more or less my plan, but I was told it couldn't be done.

Anything can be done I'm anxious to see how you address the console being done, I also am curious how the front mounts where it does, going to need to rip my old girl apart soon and see what I can do, great inspiration.

Basically, I'm looking for as many pictures about this and how it is mounted, etc. as possible. From the looks of it, this may be possible without losing too much of the interior, if that's your thing.
