hopefully when my car flips the roll bar and the radiator support will support the car so the windshield does fold down, which is why she should get a roll bar instead of a styling bar.

who would install the roll bar as i believe all the kits make you weld the rear floor plates in a convertible.

well, I've raced the car several times, but I've got a laundry list of suspension stuff on the car.

With full length subframes, and the roll bar, there is literally close to zero chassis flex that I can tell, even in serious cornering

honestly, everything should be welded in. if the OP strips the car himself, a local shop can weld the mounts pretty quickly and cheaply

This one apparently has a removable harness bar, but I'm positive it's for the name. I was including the shipping as well
