Man use the search, we got 100s of threads on this. You can buy a 4th gen FSTB for about $30 and then hack saw off a small piece of the stock airbox braket. You will know what to hack off when you get it and try to put it in place, if you got a dremel, even better.

Courtesy 5th gen bar is excellent, and great price. But if you want to go for $35 one, then get a generic one they sell on ebay. They are only for the 95-99 model. But like I said, it will fit with a bit of hacking. But it does clear the engine and is perfectly fine on my car.
