Default Drive shaft safety loop

I am in the process of finishing my build of my ceta vert and I am paranoid about sending it down the track without one, and my tunnel brace does not fit with the ARH headers and y. I have searched and searched. I cannot for the life of me find one that says will fit convertibles. All i can find is "non" convertibles only.

Anyone know where to get one, or what ones fit?

Thanks!

What "ceta" mean?

UMI's supposedly fits:

Ceta stands for Collector Edition Trans Am. My car did not have one of those x braces, thats kinda weird. I think I will build my own over winter
