Hi everyone,

Need your helpS again. I am about to install a roll cage to my 997TT. I know that if the procedure is not done correctly. Some fault code could have come on. (like air bag light and stuff). Since our turbo has airbag in the front seats.

If anyone has any experience, please chime in!

Many Thx guys!

Cheers,
Alan

I've done the tequipment bar on a 996....a ***** and a half!
Very easy to cross thread the bolts, be very careful. The danger is not the fault codes, rather stripping the bolts and cracking the windshield.

I saw a really cool roll cage at Vivid Racing where it just bolts in. They might be able to answer this for you if you contact them.

Hey Alan, the key is disconnect the battery before unplug your OEM seats for not throw any code on dash!
