[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 10933132, member: 11681"] Not a whole lot of difference in actual roll over crash functionality, between a bolt in or weld in bar if they are both the same basic design. [B][SIZE="3"]A more needed change[/SIZE][/B] would be to add "anti-punch through plates" where the roll bar pads attach to the rear outer corner of the rear seat floor wells. And then tie it into your jacking rails or SFCs. That area is a fairly light gauge of sheet metal and without a little help could punch through if the car gets a little air(going over the tire wall:eek::uh oh::nonono:) before it lands on it's roof. I have not seen any examples of an SN95 punching through yet but I did see one on an S197. It was an eye opener and I then looked at my car and I believe I will be altering that little corner section of the floor fairly soon. I have a "bolt in" Auto Power 4 point road race style bar with the removable cross and harness bar. I REALLY like being able to remove the cross bar and the dangling shoulder straps between events. Between events is quite often a long time. [B]Take a look at that area of your floor[/B] if you want links to some typical fixes for it let me know and I will dig them up, it's not all that tough to beef up that part of the floor. [/QUOTE]
