AST Weld-in Roll Cage BMW E36 Sedan V4

The AST Weld-in Roll Cage BMW E36 Saloon V4 is a full roll cage for the BMW E36 with 4-door saloon bodywork. This Weld-in Saloon V4 goes one step further than the V3: in addition to the door bars, it adds extra diagonal bars and harness bars, all permanently welded to the bodyshell at 8 points.

The cage is designed and built by AST Roll Cages in Spain, for drivers who want to anchor their harness properly and triangulate the car’s structure more tightly.

• Permanently welded at 8 points to the bodyshell

Fitting and delivery

The cage is built to order; the standard delivery time is 15 to 35 working days. AST has digitised the bodyshell with laser scanners and designed the cage in 3D from that measurement, so every welded mounting point ends up in the right place. Plan the fitting together with the seat and harness installation, as the harness bars help determine where your belts are positioned.

Door bars, extra diagonals and harness bars in one kit: the V4 is the middle ground between the basic and top-of-the-range versions.

Why choose this Weld-in Saloon V4 roll cage?

As soon as you drive with a proper harness, you want a bar behind the seats to attach those belts to. The V4 combines the harness bars and the extra diagonals in the same welded-in structure, so you do not have to weld anything on later. That way, the safety set-up of your E36 saloon is right first time.

Frequently asked questions

What are the harness bars for?

The harness bar of the Weld-in Saloon V4 is where you attach the shoulder straps of your four-point or six-point harness, so that they sit at the correct height behind the seat instead of at the original anchorage points.

What is the difference from the V3?

The V3 stops at door bars; the V4 adds extra diagonal bars and harness bars for a more rigid, better-equipped cage.

How precisely does the cage fit my car?

AST scans the bodyshell with laser scanners and designs the cage in 3D based on those digital measurements. The reinforcement plates are 3 mm thick and custom-designed for each car, so the welded mounting points end up in exactly the right places.

What is the delivery time?

The standard delivery time for this roll cage is 15 to 35 working days.
