AST Multipoint Weld-in Roll Cage BMW E36 Compact V4

The AST Multipoint Weld-in Roll Cage BMW E36 Compact V4 is a full roll cage for the BMW E36 with 3-door Compact bodywork. This Multipoint Compact V4 is the most substantial version in the range and adds extra diagonal bars and harness bars on top of the V3, permanently welded in at ten points.

The cage is designed and built by AST Roll Cages in Spain, for drivers who want to build up their Compact fully and be able to attach the harnesses to the cage itself.

Fitting and delivery

The cage is built to order; the standard delivery time is 15 to 35 working days. AST digitises the bodyshell with laser scanners and designs the cage in 3D, so that it fits your car exactly. Determine the final seat position before welding, as the harness bars need to sit at the correct height behind the seat.

The Multipoint Compact V4 is the most complete version: everything from the V3, plus diagonal bars and harness bars.

Why choose this Multipoint Compact V4 roll cage?

The V4 is the final version in the range and leaves nothing out: the front section, the doors and the rear section are all fully developed, with diagonal bars that spread the loads further. The harness bars also mean your harness system can be attached directly to the cage instead of to the bodyshell. If you want to build up your Compact properly in one go, this is the one to choose.
