Default Escort Cosworth Rear Strut Braces?

Any help on fitting the above would be very much appreciated!

I don't know where to start! To the point of not even knowing where it goes!!!

Can anybody help please?

I got it free with the front one so i thought i'd fit it!

I thought it went in the boot but didn't want to rip it all out to find out it went underneath!

No subs in my boot! Still on the original cd/tape deck!

Many thanks!

you need to remove the boot carpets on the inner wings, then remove the shock bolt nuts, the brace fits on there, refit the nuts, job done !! i have cut a small hole in the boot trims so all you see is the bar, looks very neat and tidy!!!

( if you have coil overs DONT remove the bolt !!! just the nut...)

who needs subs in cars with an engine sound like these !!!

Cheers bloke, that sounds very straight forward.

You're right about the sound as well.

I barely have the stereo on!
