If the back "half cage" replaced the stock rollbars and tied into the rear suspension then both weight and stiffness would be improved. If the stock style trunk lid was retained then a newly fabricated replacement for the clamshell/speedster humps could accommodate the roll bars and tensioning straps. This could be created at low cost using the spinlocks for attachment points. The roll bar height problem for tall drivers would be solved and the roll bars could be fashioned to best accommodate the "bimini" top from a styling viewpoint.

The newly fashioned combination clamshell/speedster humps could also be attached to the convertible top attachment hardware, allowing it to open up, like the new spyder deck lid. Does anyone know how that lid is attached?
