In case anyone needs pics of the installation, here's mine that was finished this week. I looked around but couldn't find where each plate was welded so maybe this will help someone in the future. For the rear bars, if you don't want to cut your trim panels, weld it up with the bar through the speaker hole. Then you only have to cut your grill. This is on a '99 T/A.





Right rear



Left rear



Passenger side main hoop. Driver side looks the same.

If the factory seat were still installed, how much if any did this keep them from going all the way back?

They would go all the way back and have a couple inches to spare. My race seat sits where my factory seat sat in the furthest back position.

Looks like a mig gun was used.

My $.02 on the rear bars....Too many bends, that significantly reduce the rigidity of the bar.

I'm not a welder but what makes you think a might gun was used?

Are you referring to the plates?

To me it's the smoke and "texture" of the weld. It could simply be the camera affect. My welds always look awesome till I take a pic lol....
