does your friend already have the bar? I believe jspec stopped making their replicas

here are a couple of pics of mine




here are some others (not mine same bar)






Instructions the Top Fuel bars that I have had holes in the four corner pieces to reattach seatbelts - earlier versions do not.

1.)remove seatbelts from the pillars (pop plastic cap off) & unbolt seatbelts from pillars

2.) assemble 3 bars together loosely - to tight & you will not be able to tighten w/allen wrench

3.) get the rear "C" pillar bar mounted & tighten at which time you will need to remount the seatbelts (rear passengers) (i think )

4.) notice B pillar bars do not line up with B-pillar seat belt mounts...you need to twist the B pillar bars till they do reach...then remount (B-pillar) seatbelts with long bolts & twist (tightening) B-pillar bars

I made the mistake of tightening the 3 bars together all the way & realized **** didn't fit (B-pillar mounts) that after an hour of F'n around I realized that if I twist the B-pillar bars they move in (or out depending) on which way you twist (/screw) the B-pillar bars into the C-pillar mounts not loose at all in my hatch

these bars do not fit a coupe because of the upward bend in the C-pillar bar for hatches only the distance from the B to C pillar is slightly longer than in coupes (i think)
