ok i was about to install my rear strut bar and came across a problem. when i removed the two pieces that cover the spots where the strut bar would be installed, i saw that there is this black thing in between the two bolts. how the hell am i supposed to get those bolts off with that thing there? there isnt enough space to slip anything between there to get the bolts off. any help is greatly appreciated. thanks.

here is the piece that i am talking about btw. thanks to turbo8u for the pic.....

if ur talkin about that black cap it just pops off. i just used a 14mm socket and a wrench with an extention.

i know that black thing comes off but theres still something under it that is in the way. there isnt that much space to get to the bolts. i was thinking about using a socket tho if i can find one in the garage. thanks for the help.

it isnt that hard, just use a socket with an extension

ok i went by sears ealier and picked up some new tools, including a socket. when i got back home, i immediately went over to my car and knocked out the install in two minutes. it looks good as hell; pictures will be up later. i noticed a slight difference but nothing major. i dont think ill notice it too much till i drop the car.

haha that is funny, i did the same thing, i had my rear strut bar on before i had my front strut bar on or before i even lowered it.
