im not a big fan of the roll bar if im honest even though it does look hardcore.
the asktyry and things looks good but couldnt be in the best of positions for acctually using if it was in the centre beside you? |

roll bar does look hardcore - and bling! haha i dunno but i dont mind having it in my car
ashtray - i think this positions abit awkward but if you need the space under the headunit and dont wanna loose the ashtray i think this is the best place.. i dunno..
oh well these are just ideas so people can be more creative in mounting shiz around the small car |

Is the roll bar only cosmetic or do you think it would protect you if the car rolled over ?
I'm asking because I don't think it could protect much as it just bolts on the windscreen frame... |

The mounts of the rear bar are made from flat plate so wouldn't take much force front to rear. They'd fall flat if you rolled it, except for the tie to the windscreen. It would probably do more than having nothing at all, but then a big steel bar near your head might to more damage than good. |

I dont like them there. I've seen them on the inside of the other panel in the pic. So they face each other. |

Eh? By the looks of it it uses the original ashtray which is a self contained unit... |
