it will fit but is relatively worthless with flex points at both mounts. spend your money on something more cost effective. a solid rear strut tower bar would prove more effective unless it's just for show... and then knock yourself out.

I believe you are all wrong! If you do the stress and static analysis it would show that any bar across any part of the cross-sectional area of the car will strengthen it. I know this because im a mechanical engineer and i do these calculations everyday. The flex joints are just pin connections and DO SUPPORT REGULAR LOADING. The flex forces has nothing to do with axial forces! THINK. actually they help the bar from destroying the side of the car by releasing bending stresses. noobs

do you work for a dry cleaning delivery service? if so.... buy it and save the customer trouble of re-ironing clothes after drop off.


actually, i used to have one, and it stopped squeaks that i had in my hatch. but later, i reinstalled my hatch struts without the bar, and the squeaks went away. could have been that i needed to tighten them in the first place.

i truely believe as a mechanical engineer that these help your car. Any cross-sectional support helps!
