There isn't a rear strut bar for the 6th gen accords. So you must have a front strutbar. Just remove the bolts by the strut it's that simple. If you have a solid one piece, like a neuspeed, you will have to jack up the car on one side, and the side which is lifted you'll have to remove the bolts and push down the wheel/strut. Otherwise, you will not be able to put this one piece strutbar on.

However, I think the Hayame strut bar is a three piece unit. Simply, bolt the ends by the top of the struts and connect them with the middle piece.

Didn't know, but good to know. I have a 4th gen, and mine can accept both. Learn something new everyday

i think he is having trouble removing the STOCK bars, there's a pretty good size bar going from the firewall to the strut tower.
you need to remove the plastic cover on near the rain wiper and you can see the bolts that secure that sucka

Could we please get a picture of this strut bar? As far as I know, the Comptech strutbar is the only company that requires you to remove those bars from the firewall. I believe the Hayame strut bar is like most of the three peice strutbars out there.

you still need to take it out, the oem bar is seating right in the middle of the "seat" part of the strut bar
