I just got a Steeda Strut tower brace off some guy on e-bay and all I got was the brace. Anyone know where I can find instructions for install? 00-04 are diff. than other years, I have to drill the holes myself. I've already got the plastics off but i'm not seeing where the brace connects to where the fire wall is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would drill right threw, DO NOT USE THE SELF TAPPING BOLTS! Get some nice hardware that is grade 8 or higher from a hardware or automotive store, otherwise they will snap right off...or worse with the self tapping bolts they will pop right off. Drill right threw and then used the sourced nuts, bolts and washers to secure it tightly.

99-00/ 01-04 are different slightly in a few things.

Just like ENORYM said. Use good bolts with use slef locking washers with nuts on them so they dont pop off. First put it on and line it up then take a sharpie and mark the holes then drill into it using a high power drill.
