Default Can you tell me where this EK subframe brace goes?

Got this bar for a 96-00 ek4 and I dont know where it goes. I do however know that it does NOT go in the rear of the car in the hatch/trunk area. This bar is on http://www.heeltoeauto.com

might as well send it back. it wont fit your car unless you have a ctr rear subframe. why did you buy it if you didnt know what it was.

Thanks for the obvious but it does not seem to fit on the rear of the car anywhere. Mr. Heeltoe said that it goes in the front of the car on the subframe near the "rear" of the engine. Im asking for pics

well I see now that they have added on heeltoe, "Inteded for use with CTR subframes" I have had the bar for probably 6 months or longer and have not got around to trying it yet.

Thanks GSR-T, mine seems to be completely flat though and does not have the angles that the dc bar has.

why would MR.heeltoe himself (yes, where the bar comes from) tell me that it goes in the front of the engine bay if you think it goes in the rear of the car? Im just trying to see exactly where this goes because it is a tight fit.
