Autopower rollbar installed in my T2 today! w00t!
Today I installed the Autopwer rollbar in my 1990 T2. It fits really well, I like it quite a bit. One caveat I thought I would share though, the bar seems to be engineered for a car that does not have the automatic seatbelts, like an 86-88 (or did only the T2 have the stupid things?)
Anyway, to get the bar in, you have to take the trim panel covers off the belt retractors and then scootch the rear brace endplates in under the mechanism, and then push and pry on the bar and slide the covers back under it.
Just thought I'd share. Oh yeah, this is obvious, but you have to take out the seats. The passenger side one looks like it will be a total ***** to put back in because one of the bolts is hidden wayyy up and behind and crap.
