When I had mines installed the installer had me sitting in the car. Really scary moment, to say the least. What brand did you buy? Are they bolt on or the welded brand?

I bought the SR brand from American muscle. They bolt to the seat pan and weld to the sub frame

If it were me, I would send them back and get either the Maximum motorsports FLSFC or Stifflers.

I'm sure there are better products out there. This car will get mild performance upgrades. Mostly bolt ons. It won't see any track time or hard driving except the occasional impress your buddy romp on the gas. So I'm sure these will work fine for my application.
Unless there is a drastic difference that you can point out where there is a real need to upgrade

The MM FLSFC are much longer than the others for a minimal price difference. They will actually connect the back to the front better providing a stiffer ride. See the attached picture which shows the FLSFC installed and it sits next to the front subframe mount. Most, mine included, do not cover that distance.

The Stifflers fit system is a matrix brace and increases side impact protection, our cars being 'vert is why I went this path.

Any way you go, you will be happy with the difference. But, you are welding these in and don't really want to do that more than once. This is why I suggest not buying the cheapest option, but go for the option that most people promote as being the best bang for the buck. Which from what I have seen is the MM FLSFC.

Q: "Do I need subframe connectors?"
A: Yes absolutely, any SN-95 chassis needs a good Full Length Sub Frame Connector.
There are many subframe connectors available on the market today.
You can get them from Steeda, Meier Racing, Paul's High Performance and a few other places as well.
Stifflers and Global West also make an excellent set. They are however a little more pricey and a little more hard core.
You just won't be able to do a side exhaust if you ever want to. If you have a convertible, I like to refer to these cars as "special needs vehicles".
These are POSITIVELY necessary with a convertible. In fact, if you have a convertible you are going to want to consider the Stiffler or Global West systems that would include their matrix/spider bracing. With a convertible you need the best chassis stiffening you can get your hands on period. Be sure the subframe connectors are being welded on the car with the suspension "LOADED" as it would be on a drive on lift and not with the tires suspended.
