NOOB question: rear strut tower bars
ive searched. i guess what i was really searching for is a pic of an installed RSTB, but i could not find one.
as far as i know, these things get installed behind the rear seats. is that correct?
how difficult is it to get to that spot and install this item?
i.e. how hard is it to get the seats off and bolt this in?
does it yield that much of a difference? is it worth buying on of these things?
how about after a drop/before a drop?
is a sway bar a better idea for rear end stability? or do they compliment each other?

in reality you should just get a RSB if you want more rear stability.

If you're looking for better handling, RSB over a RSTB, that's a given.
No need to remove the seats to install the RSTB. Not all too hard to get in there, depending on your size. It's installed on the rear strut towers (hence the name), just as a FSTB is.
