GA Roll cage rear stays termination location

Roll cage rear stays termination location preference? My cage builder was asking me this and I'm not aware of any weak points back there. You guys have more experience, do you guys a preference on where your stays end from your cage? It can not be fast the rear wheels according to the rules and be less than 45 degrees I believe.

I there isn't any significant difference or anything to consider I'll just let him pick it.

You can (just about) see where mine are in this pic. I didn't do any independent research on this, but this will pass lemons tech. I noticed the ones in Adax's build thread are further rearwards, and actually just past the center line of the rear wheels. I don't know if that is better or worse, but it is different. Looking at the lemons rules, both should pass
