dealer couldnt install rsb

brought my car to the intelligent certified mechanics at nissan to install a progress rsb for an 03 se and they told me that there were no provisions to install a bar in the back. they also said that the arm in the back took all the space and there was no room, i didnt even try to discuss the matter cause i realized there was no point
so please if theres anyone with some pictures for the purpose of installing a rsb on an 02-03 se max.

Wait, did you just use "intelligent" in the proximity of the word "dealership"? Unfortunately, as you will undoubtedly find out for yourself as you read through the forums, the two words will rarely be mentioned together. Its a sad but accurate observation.

Oh, and good luck with the install.

I second that. It took me like 45 mins in my driveway to put it on...without jackstands too. I know it would have been much easier with the jackstands, but I needed to suffer and ***** a little.

I think I would've been a smartas* and said, "so you are telling me that your ASE certified master mechanics don't know how to install a RSB?"
