E30 DIY Weld-It-Yourself Roll Bar (Coupe & Sedan)

Overview

The Garagistic bolt-in roll bar for the E30 chassis is built with the dual-purpose driving enthusiast in mind! This was released after customers wanted an affordable way to get our famous roll bars! Well, this is the weld-it-yourself (DIY) kit. We did most of the hard work for you! All roll bar pieces are pre-notched and ready to weld. Additionally, we provide you with all of the tubes needed to make any of the variations of this roll bar you need - straight and bent harness bars, straight or bent rear legs, and diagonal X bracing are all included in this comprehensive DIY kit. Because these come in pieces, shipping is considerably cheaper than our fully assembled roll bars.

Our roll bar tubing is made from high-strength 1.75" dia x .120 wall DOM tubing with 1/8" thick mounting plates for optimal strength and durability. It features a nice snug fit while still retaining the use of factory front seat belts.

Our roll bar's feet of the main hoop mount to the outer thicker area of the floorboard instead of the thin footwell. This helps to ensure a strong mounting point and prevent tear-through if the worst should happen. We also include outer reinforcement plates that help to further reinforce the mounting points by squeezing from both inside and out of the cabin.

Included

Main Hoop Bar

• The main hoop is left longer at the bottom to allow adjustment depending on how close you want to get the hoop to the roofline

2 Harness Bar Options

• Straight Harness Bar x1
• Bent Harness Bar x1
  • This bar is for taller drivers. If the back of your seat is behind the B pillar (in a sedan) you will need to use this bar. We recommend checking your seating position before fully welding the harness bar.
• Straight Passenger Harness Bar x1
• Front Diagonal Bar x2 pcs

Rear Roll Bar Leg Options

• Rear X Bracing Bars x3 pcs
  • Consisting of three bars to add the iconic X to the rear, these are optional to add extra rigidity to the chassis. Those who prefer to save a little weight can choose to not add the X. This will only work with straight rear legs. Cutting down the X bars and modifying the lower coping can be done to fit on bent rear legs. 
• Straight Rear Legs x2 pcs
  
  • The rear legs are left longer to allow for adjustability on the overall fit, it is recommended to cut them a little shorter if you want your cage to be removable in the future or leave them longer if the cage is going to be installed permanently
• Bent Rear Legs x2 pcs
  
  • These legs curve at the bottom to allow for a modified rear seat cushion to be installed
  • The rear legs are left longer to allow for adjustability on the overall fit, it is recommended to cut them a little shorter if you want your cage to be removable in the future or leave them longer if the cage is going to be installed permanently

Roll Bar Landing Feet

• Flat Front Roll Bar Feet x2 pairs
  • 1 pair for the inside (top)
  • 1 pair for the outside (bottom) 
• Bent Rear Roll Bar Feet x2 pairs
  
  • 1 pair for the inside (top)
  • 1 pair for the outside (bottom)
• M10 bolts, nuts, and nylon locking nuts - QTY 12
  • Recommended to install with locking nuts on top to prevent damage to the bolt threads in the event that your car comes into contact with road debris
  • The roll bar can also be welded directly into the chassis if so desired

Installation

These roll bar kits require welding. These do not come pre-welded. This is the DIY kit. Welding is recommended to be done by a professional who is certified to be able to weld safety equipment. Garagistic is not liable for "fabricators" who pick up a harbor freight welder and attempt this as their first welding project. Please practice caution and common sense in the assembly of this roll bar.

Please note: The main hoop and rear legs are purposfully longer
We do this so that you can cut them down to your liking. If you want the main hoop really close to the roof (or you have a non-sunroof e30), you might want to leave them a little longer. If you want the ability to remove the roll bar in the future easier, you would also have that ability since you cut the legs to your liking. Once you cut the main hoop, you can then do the same for the rear legs to adjust angle, position and landing areas.
