Style bars have saved lives. or at very least help. You don't need certification & don't need to cobver them up with padding.
I personally don't believe the moustrap myth

npn4875 and I bought 2 from the US had them delivered and installed them on our cars for under $400. FOR 2!

We don't have hard tops but it fits fine under the soft top without rubbing. I am in brisbane if you want to try your hard top on my car to see if it fits. And yes I have the Frankenstein bolts on the outside, but not the ones near the soft top hinge. PM if you need any help.

Cheers,

Boags

PS - improved chassis rigidity was a side effect.

*sits with kitkat*..........*offers him some popcorn*

passes over the burbon to AJ & kitkat then looks in the popcorn bowl to see ife there is any some popcorm.....& waits.

The bars are not all created equal. Most of them on Ebay are knock offs or seconds. I have the same bar from the same supplier as Boags and it has one hoop (passenger side) higher than the other. The higher hoop on mine does just touch the soft top window zip and can be an annoyance at 100km/hr. Doesn't bother me because I have the top up once in every second blue moon.

I put one on a friend's NB and it touches the soft top glass on one side. I've seen a lot of these Racing Beat type (knock offs/copies/seconds/whatever) and at least 70% of them are asymmetric.

It does stiffen up the car body, does not require any holes to be drilled, is easily removed and is big instant bling. However, seat back recline is restricted.

Will it save you in a rollover? Depends on how lucky you are. I guess the same goes for a \"proper\" roll bar. But unless you have a full harness on at the time I believe it's a raffle anyway.

Will it kill you in a rollover? Probably not, but if it isn't your lucky day.......

The hardest part about fitting them is cutting the plastic seat belt tower mouldings for a neat fit. Oh, and the nuts etc. that they come with are insufficient and crap. Budget another $5 or so for them.

Still want one

It's a real lottery with the ebay bars. Ours needed a fair amount of bending to make it mount up. One hoop is a few mm higher than the other. Ours clears the roof luckily.

There you go. Fixed your little red wagons there didn't I?


Jules

red wagons???
mine multi coloured

and we've run out of Burbon.....what took you so long. AJ & kitkat are serious pissheads
huge supply of popcorn though.

Ooooer... SHINY BLING EBAY BARS !

I wouldnt sleep well at night without mine

GET THEM THEY ROCK !!!!

Generally, the ebay bars look to be sh*t build quality but still look OK. I'd wait until there's a second hand set of genuine bars that come up.

Back_MX (aka Eugine) bought my I.L. motorsport ones at a bargain price of $150. Excellent build quality and asymmetrical in every way and no-way in hell of touching soft-top or hardtop. That's just my opinion though...
