Default Strut Tower Bar DIY Install

Yes, go to the TECH section under 'features' tap. Choose XB 2004-2006. Select Strut Bar Install and VIEW. I used this info to do mine by myself and the information was invaluable. Tricks include: lift the car, unbolt the three bolts then push down on the tire to make clearance to install bar on the bolt in the back that is flush up against the wiper motor wall. Read and see photos.

You basically have to lower the whole front frame assembly to do it. A lift helps, as does air tools.

I would highly recomend having a shop install it for you, many of times have I seen and talked to people doing the job on their own and only to have the check engine light on after the install. Just a heads up, that it is a big job.
