Neon's tower braces

[92sho16]

so will the rear bars work too?

The 95-99 Neon REAR bars do NOT fit, i ordered one by mistake and it was too short.

did u feel a difference with the neon one or is the piping not strong enough and bend????

i thought installing a front brace required the removal of the hood struts, but they were still there in the pics that SHO Continental posted... were there any modicifations made in order to keep them functional?

Good question, but in the last picture, the hood struts are removed along with the hood.

Adam Varney's hood strut relocator allows you to still use the hood struts.

Looks like this is something that could be made from scratch... Get some thick tubr or square frame, hook it to some metal disks and drill the correct holes for mounting. With a little bit of measurement work and some basic fab skills, one could make the same STB for a hellova lot less, No?

That picture showing the struts still in there was right after the bar was installed. Also, the car now runs a carbon fiber hood, no struts either way.

Stupid question.... did you try turning the bar upsidedown? Looks like there would be more room for the struts with the bend facing down.
