they go through the body, onto the frame...i think you can just pick six points, as long as your not getting in the way of anything...I.E. Moving parts or welding too close to wires...lol

Don't do this if you don't know what you're doing.

autopower makes rollcages look them up to get ideas, but i do agree with mxs, a cage isn't something a novice should build, becasue they are a saftety hazard if build improperly.
