full cage in pre 75

Driving my rig yesterday I started to wonder about something. I have future plans of installing a full cage. Looking at my wing windows, I was wondering how you guys accomodated them with the full cage. I would think it would be in the way and keep them from being able to open. I guess you could bend it right there. Most pics I have seen of full cages, the rigs are topless and doorless (maybe half doors) so I haven't seen if it would be an issue. Living in WA, I run hardtop and full doors most of the year due to rain and cold weather (still a pussy from growing up in So Cal) so I would want my full cage to be pretty user friendly.

Thoughts on this? Any pics?

never even considered it. I'm not sure my doors will even fit back on. You could move the A posts in toward center to clear the windows.

If I remember when I get home from WA state, I'll throw my full doors on and let you know if they clear on mine.

Dman..forgot how heavy those suckers are. I can get my wing vents to open about 2" before they hit my cage.
