Default Upper Strut Bar

Hey, I just got my upper strut bar for my 90 EX but im gonna drop in on my 90dx for the time being until I get my EX back on the road. So what did you guys do to get it to fit on the passenger side with the fusebox? The part of the bracket that starts to rise to connect to the bar doesnt allow the fusebox to stay where it is. I dont think I can cut enough out of the box to make it fit and the wires going into the harness dont allow me to even keep 1 bolt holding it down. And I dont want to trim the bar itself with my dremel. Very odd thing though was that on the box it said 85CRX and on the bar it said 92-00 Civic. However it does fit just the box is in the way....so eh...whatd you guys do or did your fit perfectly?

Soundsl ike a E-bay deal..

When I had a E-bay bar, matrix or something.. I mounted the fuse box with only one bolt and zip tied the other end.. ghetto and but effective... for awhile..
like most ghetto rigs..

I have moved on to Nuespeed

e-bay deal indeed, couldnt beat $20 for a first time deal. Obviously later on I will get something better but figured I'd go cheap to see what its like. I think I'll also do the 1 bolt and tie the other side down. Thanks.
