To get you strut bar to mount to the firewall. you have to get a length of pipe and put one end under the bracket (firewall side) and the middle of the pipe on top of the strut bar and just press down on the other end. There will be enough movement for the holes to line up. That's how I installed mine… good luck

Did you have the same problem as me?
I've heard the strut top bolts are really fragile? :?
I'd rather not snap them. But if they're fine, then I'll go for it. :thumb:
