what is that bar called?

I remember reading on here a while back that there was a member that had some kind of strut bar type thing that bolted up where the back seat was... and I also remember saying that it's intended for the DC5 but you can get it to fit da EM2 if you drill two holes or something.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?! Ha ha

I know it sounds vague... I'm not talking about the bar behind that back seat but I already have that one...It's a bar that sits up higher.

Thx doods.

Re: what is that bar called?

C-pillar bar, but i think it would be a pain to put on a civic and would effectively block your back seat...

Re: what is that bar called?

i do believe he may be talking about the Neuspeed Rear upper strut bar... it crosses where our pass-thru to the trunk is, and attaches to the framing....

if you're talking about the bar that has the red strap thing hanging from it in your pic, then we are talking about the same type of bar...

Neuspeed's Rear upper strut bar doesn't connect to the struts themselves, but rather the same way as the one i believe you're talking about, where it goes to the frame instead...take a look again. (there's a link to how to install as well that shows this)

Re: what is that bar called?

yea, i've been wondering if the neuspeed one fits our cars... i just didn't want to spend $200 on it, then find that it doesn't fit...

then i'm stuck selling it, and its easier to find a four leaf clover than finding someone to buy a brand new item from you for what you paid...

yeah, normally when i just paste a link in a post, it automatically sets it as clickable... this time for some reason it didn't. just thought people would copy it to the address bar. guess i thought wrong.

well, i went back and fixed it.
