You mean the rear bars of the cage?

once the main hoop is in just get a shorter bar that will go from the main hope to the plastic and line them up where they will go, if anything this will get you close.

Dude it is going to take alot of panels be put in and out of the car. Making sure your mocking it up exactly where its going to go.... its tough and it takes some time and patience. You may have to get it close and then just open up the holes in the panels. Thats what I did in my car its not perfect but it works. Hope it helps a little.

tools:
14mm socket
14mm open wrench
drill (make sure the battery is fully charged!..LoL)
100mm hole saw
jack and jack stand
silicone sealer

install time: id say about 3-5 hours. it took us alil longer because we had to sit around and let the battery charge for the drill.

remove front and rear seats... now slide the rollbar inside and dry fit it.... we had to get alil creative due to lack of tools and use a screwdriver to determine where to drill the hole in the rear panel...LoL now drill the holes and install the mounting bolts... make sure you put some sort of silicone sealer around the bolt holes between the plates to prevent water leakage. now put back everything that you removed and youre done!... and they said no one could sit in the back.....LoL we took it for a test drive and the difference was like night and day.

thats all for now.
watch out for this car when youre out on the backroads..:2f2f:
