I'm almost certain it does... depending on the type of cage it only becomes an issue if you want decent access to the rear via the back doors.

It will fit fine but one small issue is that the center bars will not be in line with the pillars, when they really should be for strength reasons.

So what do u reckon Wayne ? Could I get it and put some extra supports in after the cage is in !

Those seats look shat and the harnesses look utter shat.

They're base-mount, so won't be proper shell seats and unless there's a hole for the crutch strap you're going to be limited to 4-point harnesses.

A 6-point cage won't have harness bars, so you'll still have a lot of work to get a harness bar welded into the cage.

I'd go for a grey/silver interior - it'll be hto as hell in a matt black interior in the summer and you only have four tiny little holes in the driver's window.
