That doesn't really make the cage stronger, the intent is to keep the cows out, I wanted to install one on my car, and was told it would make the car unsafe, and more than necessary difficult to get the driver out if needed, if the car is damaged that bad, and they are concerned about the driver, they cut the cage off anyway, so why is it unsafe. If need be, they can unbolt the seat, and tip it forward to make it easier, or just take the "package" out as an assembly, driver and seat. If the tube that crosses the cage has 90 degree bends on each end, and no more than 1 tube diameter long, I fail to understand how it could spread the cage, and make it collapse. JMHO! Bob
