Default Anyone now how to instal a EG OEM stock Strut Tower Bar on a 94 Civic Ex Coupe ?

I noticed that some of the Civic's 92-95 where sold with OEM Strut Tower Bars like the stock one that the 99 Civic Si has. Anyways, I seen these on EG6 and EG9 and would like to instal one on my 94 Civic Coupe EJ1. Any ideas ? Need Help??

1) Drill Holes

2) Put bolts through holes.

3) Bolt on bar.

Seems like pretty basic mechanical skills.

true, seems easy, but I think it needs to be linked with other conponents. Think honda would have the specs on what to use in order to make this work ?? Anyone?? Not into it for looks!!

I have one on my car. That's how I installed it. There are no specs because the cars that come with them have the bolts pre-welded to the chassis. On the cars without them, there are dimples on the shock tower to show you where to drill. There are no linked components, it doesn't attach to anything else. If you understood how it worked, then you wouldn't be asking these questions.

Just use SAE Grade 8 / Metric Grade 10.9 bolts if your worried about structural strength.

My EH2 had rubber grommets covering the 4 holes. Maybe the EJ1 is the same. If it is, you won't need to drill, just feed bolts through and bolt the bar in.
