According to this, it's 8MM nuts (#7), so I guess they use studs that come up from the bottom.

 

Thanks Bruno.

I don't think I have the studs from the bottom though.

Car is not here.

I will check when the G/F comes home.

 

No, you won't have studs... mine just has dimples where you are supposed to drill, but apparently loudsubz' car had pre-drilled holes only covered up by little rubber grommets. While you are at it, go to a factory industrial supply place, and order stainless steel fastners in the 8mm variety.

 

ya i think u will need to drill in the holes ur self cuz when i got mine apperently honda drilled them in for me but then again mine came with the car

 

M8 or M10 will do you fine.

4 x Bolts (20 mm)
4 x Nuts
8 x Washer

Use Stainless Steel if you can

 

Exactly what JSK listed. That's what I used on mine.

 

Thanks guys.

Is the hardware availabe at Brafasco??

Where did you get yours??

 

I just went to CT and bought a pack of nut/bolts that were the right diamater, I think 3/8" bolt, bought some washer and I was set, no need to go all out with metric or buy the OEM stuff. its just a bolt.

 

I just picked up some fine threaded nuts and bolts from Home Depot that were M8 or stronger.

 

How do I get the bolts though the holes?

 

Yes, like the boys said you'll have rubber caps that you just pop off and you'll already have holed pre-drilled for the bar!

Bolts? Just reach though the fender well wayyyyyy up and you can put the bolts though the inside of the fender and up to the bar w/ a nut onto.

If your car's dumped (2.0"+) you might not be able to get your arm inbetween the top of the tire and into the fender well, so you might have to jack up the car a bit.

 

I'm offering my help if you need it Aaron. Just PM me.

 

give me a call I'll give ya a hand

 

Thanks guys.

I will prolly be doing it sometime this weekend.

I will zap you if I run into any biggies.

Thanks..

:cry:

 

ATTN..CX civics do NOT have the holes needed for a strut bar in the metel u'll have to drill new holes

 

92-93's did. 94-95's didn't. That applies to the hatches and coupes... not too sure about the sedan.
