You're welcome 
I have the five-point roll bar set up in my '68...a straight bolt in, for the most part. There are six point, eight point and full cages available and they can be shipped to your door:

They bolt to the package tray, with a plate underneath (at either end of the Z-bar), but the other RLR option has them continue through the tray and weld to the frame horns (supposedly removes the need for a traction bar).
Mine's a total bolt in, as I wanted to be able to remove it, for installation into another Beetle in the future.
Here's the package tray:

I've got the RLR 5-point bolt in cage as well.
Very nice, quality piece. RLR's website says it's legal through the tens.

Info:
The top bars will need to be welded to be NHRA legal on the picks!!!
