Didn't provide replacement bolts for the bar.
So I went out and bought new washers and bolts from local hardware Store.

Comparsion.

Bar is not installed because of that snapped bolt.
Thinking about just sell the bar and buy alex c pillar bar.

Possibly it was a message from god saying I shouldnt add unnecessary weight to my car.

Another Update.

Tried to fix with Drill Out tools.
Didn't work too well.

So I bought Self tapping screws and Worked great.

How in hell did you get the bolt out? When I removed my Mugen Bar (sold to a RSX users) the bolt snapped on me too. :'( I didn't get around to remove it yet, so how'd you do it?

It was bitch to get it out really.
Tried to use Drill Out tool ,Didn't work well at all.
So I bought Self Tapping Screws and Drilled right through with cordless drill.
It was pain in the ass to get it off.

Finally Pictures.
Self Tapping Screw.

Another Update.

Found out that Rear Seat can not be used with JIC bar.
I may have to find the replacement.
Car is daily drive and I do use rear seat quite often.

you REALLY sure the seats won't go back up? when I had my mugens on I thought the same. I just SLAMMED the seats and it locked in place. Give it a try. The bar looks as thick as the mugen.

There is no way i can put seats back in the place.
Bar is freaking THICK.
Bar sticks out about an inch from the latch for rear seats.
