S&W and there's another company from PA autoweld. Alot of guys don't like the fit and finish of the prebent cages, this is why i was looking for a few pics to see how the bends follow the dash, couldn't find any online of the S&W around dash kit. Thanks for the reply, Anybody with some pics?

I wasn't worried about the seat and rug, but kind of wanted to keep my gauges and some sort of dash. unless its not to bad to put the bars through the dash then trim the cover. If i did it that way i think i would loose the small fuse box and have to re-wire everything. the truck is a 96.

I used a s&w kit on a second Gen with the bars thrue the dash, the fit was okay for a prebent kit, the main hoop could of been a little wider was my only complaint.

Nice, thanks for the ride...... Did you bend your own cage? I was just looking at what is left of my dash, i may just go through the dash and buy a replacement cover to neaten it back up....
