i think the OEM rollbar (not pop up bar) fits cabs. Rear seats need to be removed though just as coupe.

I have also been looking to put one in my Cab. I know Carnewal sells the Factory Techequip version, Das Sport sells an aftermarket "weekender" model and Autopower also sells their version.

yeah I would be interested in seeing how it looks. How much weight would it add too? I am sure that is a factor.

Got the tequipment with crossbrace for the cab. Not heavy at all. Don't need to remove rear seats but they will not be usable for people. No pics, sorry.

The tequipment one that I have has no crossbrace and back seats can
be used for little people. I would advise a high quality padding, though.

Used for midgets? Just kidding. However, even with padding, I would imagine in the event of an accident you would make contact at a high rate of speed and you would open yourself up to a lot of liability.

wow, that looks cool.

how much is it?

the only drawback is losing what little storage we have.
