Re: rear strut bar..
Looks like a front to me. But I hope they are not showing the actual product because that bolt pattern will not work on front or rear.
Re: rear strut bar..
dont buy the strunt bars from ebay. they are crap quality and some even dont fit properly. I recommend you buy one from corksport

Re: rear strut bar..
Well Brian, we took the easy way out on your car by just removing the rear seatbelts instead of doing it the right way.
I still have mine, and you can keep yours-- it just requires some minor cutting with the Dremel.

Re: rear strut bar..
You have to cut about 1x2 inches out of the plastic, and 2x3 inches out of the metal seatbelt bracket.
Those are rough "guesstimates" though.

Re: rear strut bar..
Yeah Perry that seems about right. I installed my CorkSport rear strut bar and I am just leaving out the back seatbelts, its easier that way.

Re: rear strut bar..
I kept mine, it wasnt a big deal, took maybe an hour at most...the seatbelt brackets were an easy 10 minutes to cut out with a dremel and a fireglass cuttingwheel. The plastic was a little more tricky, used a long driving wheel to eat away at the plastic...i tried to make the plastic contour the bar, which took some time, but if you cut a rectangular hole and dont wanna worry about asthetics, it should take long at all
