here it is.. it's bigger than it looks..about 2 feet end to end. Also remember my car is older, so it's smaller from side to side.

Looks good. How thick is your sway bar?

Ok...I got some pictures of my undercarriage and an idea (maybe?) of where the bar would go.


^ Doesn't exactly fit too well....


^ Does the bar go where I have circled in red?

The last thing it could possibly be is it is a strut bar, but it attaches to either a single bolt on the towers on either side (which doesn't seem right at all), or it attaches to the bolts on the top of the shock itself (which seems even worse). Where did you get it?

My rear sway bar is 30mm in diameter, front is 35mm

It can't be a strut bar...

So my prediction was incorrect (placement is not right?)

This was where I got it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=180135742529

He said it was either behind the seatbelt (umm no) or in the trunk (no.)
