Wanted Roll Cage Padding

Anyone know of a good source for this - looking for the real deal not pipe lagging from the local DIY superstore.

When did you get that fitted ? What type of cage do you have ?

Demon Theives sell it, or were you looking to spend less than the GDP of a small country ?

Its actually for another project not the Exige…but didn’t want to admit to that

There’s loads of places that sell it

Steve - the key was in the question - i.e. I was looking for a personal recommendation, or experiences both good and bad…but thanks for a link to that google thing…never seen that before

The FIA spec stuff is basically like dense polystyrene… great in a big impact but I got a nicely bruised arm when I kept knocking into it on a rally stage…

The three other alternatives I have used in the past are

a) the plumbers lagging type, nice, chunky and soft for minor day to day impacts, gets scagged easily and is think, comes in lots of colours though.

b) thin foam rubber type stuff, similar to a) but only comes in dark grey and is a lot thinner.

c) Safety Devices used to do some nice padding which was basically like b) but covered in a vinyl outer and was held together down the seam with velcro. I used this for years on a door bar as it could rotate around the bar when you got in and out the car so didn’t get messed up.

Both a, b and c wouldn’t offer anywhere near as much protection as the FIA in a big impact though.

I got tubes of padding for the support bar which runs from my roll bar into the passenger footwell. The actual bar is about 2.5 inches diameter from memory.

Grand Prix racing at Silverstone

It came in various colours and lengths of about one metre.
