    Tangent 2" Roll Bar Kit

    Guys,
    Is there anyone else out there that needs a 2" Tangent roll bar kit. Eric has sold the last one and needs to have orders for 10 to make more. I need 2, anyone else?

    Here is a link to the Roll Bar kit:
    http://tangentkits.com/site/295a6c46..._Kits.php#2857

    It's a no drill kit that allows you to mount the bar without drilling and putting a bolt through it.

    I see he lists 1.5" kits for the MK4. What size bar comes with the MK4? My kit hasn't shipped yet, but this is an item I definitely want to use. If the MK4 bars are 2", count me in for two kits (driver and passenger).

    Thanks. It wasn't obvious in the list of what comes with the kit. I ordered chrome driver and passenger bars and looking through the parts catalog on the FFR site, they show 2" for the bars, so I wasn't sure what will arrive with my kit. I guess I'll wait to order the Tangent kits until later.

    If you do not plan to use the FFR roll bars, you might want to call FFR and have both of them deleted from your order. (Assuming your kit has not yet shipped!) You might be able to resell one or both of them, but you will lose money in the process. I chose the Breeze 1.75" bars for both sides, and was able to sell the one roll bar that came with my kit, but I did take a loss on it. Why spend money on something you won't need? I will guarantee there are plenty of folks around this forum that are more than willing to help you find ways to spend your money!!

    There's no reason to doubt what will be in your Mk4 kit. They will be 1.5 inch roll bars. It's been that way since the Mk4 was introduced several years ago. The catalog listings on the Factory Five website for 2 inch roll bars all say Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3. For Mk4, they show the 1.5 inch version. Tangent makes a hidden connector for each size. I've used them both.

    Tangent can make 2" Roll Bar kits, but Eric needs orders for 10 kits to make it worth his time.

    I need 2, is the anyone else that needs one?

    Thanks Joel
