Where To Cut?

Post by **JaySmith** » May 27, 2005

Alright I've had my ALEX Rear Strut Bar sitting here for awhile now, and I'm getting tired of looking at it. :p And I'm sure someone on here has a Civic Hatchback (EK), and had to cut the holes for it. I'm hoping someone can guide me on where to cut, maybe post pictures too?

Jon do you have a rear strut bar with rear interior still? I wanna find this, as my buddy can cut the holes this weekend for me.

mabye you could try finding a template some where?

Tried, nobody has one. I was thinking maybe someone with the Mugen rear strut tower bar would have the instructions to scan, but no luck.

dude that simple...

1. measure where the bar will run through... (there's those raised bars and you'd have to cut the hole higher... or the spoon like bars that run straight from left to right which means the hole should be a little lower)

2. check how much will go through the interiour... just the bar, or also a little bit of the 'feet'

3. stick your indexfinger into your mouth, make it wet, put it into the air and feel where the wind is coming from... and start cutting away

it's not an exact science you know
