I need to know what the measurement from bolt to bolt is on the rear inner ITR Trunk strong bar.

Thanks, -Jeff

Yes, The OEM silver bar that is bolted inside the trunk to the frame,....Right under the taillights.
I need the measurement from bolt head to bolt head.

P Nut, I read all 4 pages of the DIY link, But didn't see the info I'm looking for.
The Geocities link is dead.

Thanks for trying though

you will need to drill two holes aproximately 91cm apart

Isn't that what you were looking for?

I don't know what's wrong with your computers, but here's BSQ's insturctions...

DIY trunk brace

Disclaimer - please read.

Here are the necessary parts from Home Depot for the trunk brace (see figure 1 and figure 2):

1" square x 4' long steel bar ($8.44)
1" square black plastic end caps (4 in a bag @ $0.85)
5/16" x 2.5" long stainless steel screws (2 needed @ $0.69 each)
5/16" ID x 7/8" OD stainless steel washers (2 needed @ $0.07 each)
5/16" ID x 7/8" OD zinc washers (4 needed @ $0.03 each)
5/16" ID x 1.5" OD zinc fender washers (2 needed @ $0.11each)
5/16" ID x 7/8" OD rubber washers (3 in a package @ $0.33)
5/16" nylon lock nuts ( 2 in a package @ $0.97)

*** TRUNK BRACE KIT IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ***

(please visit http://www.geocities.com/bretq....html for further information)

Here are the steps for installing the trunk brace:

1.) Cut the 1" square bar stock to 36.25" (same length as Type-R trunk brace).
2.) Drill a 3/8" hole in both ends of the 1" square bar (approx. 0.4375" front the end of the bar) (see figure 3).
3.) Remove the plastic rear trunk liner (see figure 4).
4.) Center the bar equally on both ends and mark the mounting holes on the sheetmetal.
5.) Drill a 5/16" hole in the rear trunk sheetmetal (inner and outer sheetmetal / both mounting holes) (see figure 5).
6.) With a thin paint brush, prime the new mounting holes.
7.) Determine the mounting location on the plastic rear trunk liner and drill 1" hole in the liner (figure 6).
8.) Reinstall the trunk liner.
9.) Install the black plastic end caps on the steel bar (see figure 7).
10.) Place a stainless steel washer on 2.5" long bolt, then insert bolt through the hole in the bar. Repeat on other end of the bar (see figure 8).
11.) Place 2 zinc washers on the bolt. Repeat on the other bolt (see figure 8).
12.) Insert both bolts into the new mounting holes (see figure 9 and figure 10).
The remaining steps may require an additional person
13.) From underneath the car, insert a rubber washer on the end of the bolt. Then insert a zinc fender washer on the bolt. The rubber washer is used to seal the hole from moisture.
14.) Thread the nylon washer on the bolt and then tighten. Repeat on the other end of the bar. Warning: do not over tighten the nuts.

I can take a measurement for you... brb

Edit, almost exactly 35" center to center. (about 89 cm.) Hard to measure exactly. Definitely not quite the 91 cm that was quoted above... Hmm!

That's not all true.
I had a '99 Ls that I installed a (Real not DIY) ITR trunk bar in last year.
I had to drill out the holes myself.
The holes you are talking about are for the trunk cargo clips that come with ITRs only and are optional after purchase for any model Teg.

I was thinking about DIYing a ITR bar into my '00 Si.
I have been after a Benen Strong bar for months now, But I think I'm luckier to find a ITR Trunk bar for sale then a Benen
