if you cut the sides off and your willing to make custom sections up im sure you can adapt one to fit.

thanks, going to give it a shot anyway as its cheap and rekon armed with the tig and grinder should be able to make it fit............

Willy 3 ~~ is the cage just for track day use ??? If it is for competition work ~~ Rallies,sprints etc etc.It must conform to type as per the MSA rule book ~~ and be welded by an approved ( certificated ) welder :wink:

its just for track use, and it will be a certified welder welding it if need be, so should be fine............

Good work but not really a surprise it fits...a clio is basically just an overweight 5.
