Default Rollbar

Well I finally got my Autopower "4-point" rollbar today, one that I ordered about a month and a half ago from ioport racing. I'm very dissapointed with what I got. I was expecting a full 4 point bar, what I got instead was a 2 point with some cheesy little ears for upper bolt points, that bolt on by the seat belts. The only pictures I could find of the autopower "street rollbar", which is what I ordered, was installed on a late 90's model stang. I figured it would atleast be close, but I was mistaken. I haven't installed it yet but it is sitting in the car, it will probably drop about an inch or so once installed, but I'm really not sure if I like it at all. I haven't called ioport yet, but it was a standard price for a 4 point rollbar, and I don't feel as though I got that. what I got has much less material and required much less welding on their part, and simply is not what I wanted or ordered. Would everyone agree that I got ripped off? I should have gotten a custom built one. I'll be taking some pictures when I get a chance, to get some second opinions before I install it.

Also if someone knows exactly how to take off the rear top interior quarter panels, and would like to tell me how, it would be greatly appreciated.

I found the answer to this in the Classic design concepts instruction .pdf, since the rollbar didn't come with instructions, the panels just have retaining clips and basically pop right off. Just wanted to make sure so I didn't break anything.
