Strut bars

Guys, by any chance you guys have tried putting aftermarket strut bar for your Yaris?

Thing is, I have access to some Cusco strut bars and lower tie bar but I'm not sure if it'll fit the NA Yaris.

since the front upper mounts on the yaris are a single mount, and thus different from any scion or something similar, i doubt anything will fit, but it should be very easy to make one. and lower tie bars won't do a damn thing to the yaris, it would just be for looks

Im not talking about just any strut bar, I'm talking about Cusco bars specifically made for the Yaris. Since its for the JDM Yaris, not sure if it'll fit the NA Yaris.

The guys at BC Auto here in Toronto advised me that they would be a fit.

only rear strut bars and sways would not to come from Japan at the moment. cusco most likely isn't going to make the rear strut bar since it isn't offered in Japan, i would expect Tanabe sooner or later to fabricate one.

According to this page, he either means a lower tie bar or a strut tower bar.

What does the page have to do with anything?? He didnt post there..

He asked if there were any companies that make SWAY BARS, not lower bars or strut brace's... hence my quote to someone who replied to someone who mentioned sways.... ah, forget it.

Now I'm confused...

There is only one thing to do in a situation like this.
