You have to remove rear seats and interior panels to reach rear top mounts. You can do it from the trunk too, but I recommend do it from the inside of the car. You'll have a very tight space BTW.

Doubt that's gonna work unless you got some weird strut bar. I tried a few different ones, the "firewall" was always in the way. Good luck!

what "firewall" is this?? it should just brace between the two top strut mount locations... just like on a hatch, im assuming.. i cant see behind my backseat (top in the way) so im not sure, i just assumed

you'll see when you are trying to fit it .

You can also see this "firewall" - i use quotes cuz it's such a weak sheet of metal doesn't seem like a true firewall - by putting the top up, and looking through the trunk. You'll see a nice layer of sheet metal that gets in the way of installing a strut bar on top of the factory brace between the towers.

The few strut bars I tried did not work.

Forget about it. To make it fit, you have to cut some 'fiewall' sheet metal and by doing so structure will get weaker. Someone has to custom make rear strut bar, but it seems like no one is making it since there's no big market for it...

Get this. It'll stiffen up rear end. Better than nothing I would say.
