Time is money for an installer, when I say no one can do it faster I mean that no one will do it cheaper.
Going to AGI is a good bet, saves you the bloody knuckles and the weekend (or two) of swearing and scratching your paint.

.... and if anything goes wrong they will (should) sort it. $280 is a bargain.

Here is the AGI softtop roll bar install instructions, I don't have the instructions for the hardtop version.

Success! Those instructions helped a lot tbh. Actually got it done a few weeks ago and thought I should update.

After installing the bar I ran into the issue of getting the side latches to latch onto the striker plates as the bar was in the way. I had to get some Jass performance brackets from OMGpham, which are so much better in securing down the hard top.

Nah, me and my dad. called agi a few times to ask them to do it for me but they said they couldnt at the moment because their boss wasnt there at the time and couldnt give me a price either so I waited about 1 week and called again and was told that they were going to some sort of track day for the next couple days so I was like wow ceebs waiting, might as well try do it myself and asked my dad to help out.

We didn't really run into any issues, he just did the drilling and I just helped bolt everything up.
