Roll cage for the 964Which roll cage for a Porsche 911 964
The Safety Devices Roll Rear Cage is the lightest option if you do not need the full structure. The full Roll Cage is a well proven mid-tier choice once you have confirmed your sunroof fitment. For a 964 built properly for competition, the Custom Cages Multipoint T45 Kit at £1595 is the top of the range here.
Harnesses
Harnesses need a roll cage or harness barA 4-point, 5-point or 6-point harness with separate shoulder straps needs proper attachment points above and behind the seat. Fit a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar before using anything above a 3-point belt.
The TRS Clubman 3-point bolt-in at £80 and 4-point clip-in at £100 both use the standard seat belt anchor points and do not need a cage. For 4-point competition use, the TRS Magnum 4-point FIA at £205 and the Takata Drift II at £229 are the step up.
For 6-point harnesses, the cage goes in first. The TRS Magnum 6-point Superlite FIA at £245, the Takata Drift III at £270 (snap-on or bolt-on), and the Schroth Profi 3×2 at £370.01 all suit a caged 964 going to competition or serious track days.

Common questions
Does my 964 need a sunroof-specific cage?
Yes. Safety Devices build separate cages for the sunroof and no-sunroof Carrera 4. Check which applies to your car before ordering.
Which subframe should I use?
The Cobra Direct Fit Subframes at £158.33 are the practical choice. Corbeau, Planted and Recaro options are also confirmed for the 964.
Can I run a 6-point harness without a roll cage?
No. A 6-point harness needs anchor points above and behind the seat for the shoulder straps. Fit a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar first.
Should I choose a competition bucket or a reclining seat?
A competition bucket holds you better through a corner but is harder to live with day to day. A reclining seat keeps more factory comfort while still improving on the standard seat.
