If you already have a good bolt in cage with the front legs bent around the dash you can get two new ones made that run down the A-pillars and true the dash properly instead, cheap and easy fix to the problem!

John do you need 2 parallel or "x" door bars if there is side impact bars in the stock doors ?

They fail because in the event of the car turning over the vertical load on the a-pillar bar causes it to buckle were the bar is bent into an S shape around the dash, this usualy results in the roof being pressed down on top of the drivers head. Most Motorsport now requires an a-pillar support bar even when using a proper true dash bar,

here's a link to the MSA regs on the issue

Yes you will need two bars even with stock doors
