I have the autopower, it's not bad. Installing it is a total ***** if you have automatic seatbelts though. To get mine in I had to take out the seats and take the covers off the automatic belt motors, put the bar in place, scoot it all the way to the left, reinstall the right cover, scoot it all the way right and install the left cover, and then bolt it down.

I have the autopower 6 point, and I like it alot. It did limit the mobility of the driver and passenger but it did stiffen the car up and was an easy install.

That sounds familiar. What a PITA that was with my install. Of course, they don't mention that in the literature. I managed with removing just one seatbelt cover and motor. Re-installing it after the bar was in was the problem.

To the OP, if you have a sunroof, make sure you order the correct bar. Otherwise you may get a bar that won't fit.
