Cage looks proper  :happy2:

Is it welded on footplates or custom fitted to the seatbelt mounts?

I get the idea of the adjustable top mounts but not sure what the two screws are for, can you explain in noddy terms for my benefit?
Thanks and regards,

John

The 2 screws either side are what gives you your adjustment on the strut for your camber.

Geordie,
thanks for that, it's what I assumed but I thought they didn't look big enough to lock it once it was set. All new to me!
Regards,

John

It has welded plates to bolt to as the builder didn't feel the seat belt points where the best option. Still done in a way it could be put back to standard, options of either cutting the plastic trim or just removing it of the time your running the cage.

Here's a couple more pic's
