I just installed a 23mm Ultra Racing bar, and although the install was a piece of cake, didn't remove the wheels or anything, my only beef with the bar is the bolts that it came with were too large for the holes on the suspension beam. The only way they would fit is if I drilled the holes out, which would be near impossible without taking off the whole rear brake assembly.

Luckily I've got a huge random assortment of nuts/bolts and found some bolts that fit perfectly. Not sure if the wrong bolts were sent with my bar or what, but they were not even close to fitting.

First impression of the bar is great, car is much flatter, but unfortunately the stock tires are so damn soft they just squish around. I'll be running the Yaris at autox next weekend (normally I race a 350hp subaru, but it has a fuel leak so I'm bringing out the Yaris for the first time) so I'll see how it does there.

So I didn't bother emailing MicroImage about the big bolts, cause I got it done with bolts I had... but I'm assuming he saw my post, because 2 days ago I got an envelope in the mail with two new bolts!

That's some great customer service!!! Thanks!!!
