I just went over some things with our roll bar inspector for our area the other day. My question was adding some other bars, he said once the main design or requirements are met, any bar of ones choosing can be added with no size requirement. So with that thinking you could add another top hoop foward of the main one, even down some to get close to her helmet. Run one side down and back to seat bar and the other side down to side bar like a funny car cage. Maybe do another side bar to cross her shoulder-elbow, straight out then turn down at the new hoop intersecting point. Then back down to roll bar at the floor, just like the kidney bar. Seems rather simple to do. From what he told me they can be even 1-1/2 or smaller. As far as safety is concerned he said with a roll bar you actually have two cages, the car structure and the roll bar. What you have passes the tech now, just add what you want.
