Also installed this SMR rear strut tower brace. I got it for a sweet deal a few years back and never got around to putting it on. It angles towards the front and runs parallel to back seats. This keeps from losing any trunk space. It doesn't bolt to the actual struts, the fenderwell just below it. I replaced the grade 5 bolts they sent with stainless ones to keep from rusting since the head is in the fenderwell. View attachment 1493340
Im not so sure this is beneficial to a coupe, but I could see an advantage on a vert.
I found that a very similar brace is used on Towncars. I pulled one off and it fit perfect on my 88 TurboCoupe. I may give one a try on my 97 vert.
