Hey a buddy of mine has a 96 neon and i was looking under the hood and noticed that they have very little hood clearnce. That gave me an idea. I measured from one strut to the other and it was tha exact same as my 94 celica. so i ordered a neon strut bar off ebay for like 6 + 15s/h when i got all i had to do was take a rubber hammer and flaten it out a little and drill new hole in the brackets and it went on just fine. and I could really tell a difference. My car is lowered 4in so it pretty bouncy and stiff but when i added it i felt it tighen up the body roll even more. beats paying 200 later

Wouldn't pounding on it and bending it kinda jeopardize the strength of the strut bar...therefore not helping? lol
