That's what I wanted, different.. Rollbar is a custom made chromoly, made at a local shop. I can get a pic tomorrow of the back seats, I had them customized to clear the crossbars. My bottle is located between the back seats.

Here's a pic, I had the seats modified to clear the bars.. I know they are useless, but wanted to maintain the look with the seats..
