thats the thing with mine i didnt cut it cause i knew i was gonna F up lol so i took the pillar bar off and jus said hell with it and didnt install it bak there. i ended up installing it on the coat hangers in the back seat lol i did it for looks basically

 

well im trying to show my car this summer and i got something really funny i wanna do with the bar as well as i love the look of i really need help with it

 

for real not one person can help me with this problem?

 

I'm trying to think who had it done wit the holes.

but u can try this, put a sharpie in the whole that its gonna bolt up to and where it touches the platic interior u trim? damn idk another way hmm I guessu can measure how far the hole is from a certain point with the piece on and then off and then cut idk man I'm jus as stumped as u r

 

yeah i tried the messuring this but idk how the pillar sits once its back on lol imma be up all night now and i have work at 6am this is gunna suck

 

Which bar did you use for this? The integra bar or the scion bar?

 

i want a clean look like this but this is the tc bar and you cant use the back seat

 

the one I had and when I put it from coat hanger to coat hanger was a integra bar and it also fit behind the headrest

 

yeah thats not mine im just using it as a reference i want a nice clean whole for the bar to come out like that. i have the integra bar also much better to use the back seats with

 

bump

 

Hmmm I have an idea. What if you take some play do or modeling clay. Ball it up and stick it to where the bar is going to go. Then put your C pillar back on. The clay should stick to the back of the C pillar when you take it back off, and there you go!

 

that would work if the bracket is straight the bracket the c pillar connects to is kinda arced so it would be hard it might work.. i am goin to try to get another set of c pillars to see incase i F up lol

 

to get a good idea take the c pillar off and measure where the whole will go from several different points. Like measure how for down the whole is from the top of the c pillar, how far left, right etc. Then put the c pillar back on and use those measurements. Then drill a small pilot whole and go from there.

 

yeah thats what im going to do i just want to find some extra c pillars before i cut mine i got them all taped up. i want some extra ones ill just feel safer you no what im saying
