None that I know of without modifications. The Courtesy bar seems to be the closest, but it must be bent and sometimes the a/c hose is in the way. I'm not bothering. I have one and I'll sell it before I mess with all of that.

Good luck...
Nothing fits the VE. People always bend it to make it "fit" which I dont think is good for it. I made my own custom mounting brackets, and mine fits perfectly. It wasnt easy though...

Man, this topic keeps coming up. A few weeks ago there was a topic called "cheap FSTB's" (or FTSB's) and I mailed someone named nstymax92 (or 93 or 94) who told me he had a FSTB made by Freedom Design that fit, just barely, without modification, and that all he did was use some washers under the brace to raise it up a little more. Jury is still out though if this is a fluke or if others will have similar luck. He didn't say, but I assume it's their 4th Gen bar. I don't think anyone, Courtesy included, make "3rd Gen bars" anymore, but 4th Gen bars work.

Search for "FSTB" or "FTSB" (sometimes misspelled)

Does anyone else on the boards have the Courtesy bar that was meant to fit on the VE? I got one back in the spring, but no one else seems to ever have one.
