The bolts that go through the mounting plates and hold the brace are about 8", but replacement braces do not use these bolts, instead they bolt to where the mounting plates attach on the side of the chassis. Those bolts are only about 1" long.

Robin's bar does use those bolts. Its main attachment is the seat belt upper mounts and then uses the stock bar bolts for locating the bottom of the bar. A very nice design, imo.

Auto power has no reference to the 370, only the 350. Why is it so hard to find products for this car?

Robispec and amuse both dropped out of making harness/strut bar, can't find one anywhere.

I have the first autopower full roll bar for the 370. At least, that's what they told me when I ordered it. In fact, they needed me to send them photos and give some feedback because of this. As far as I assumed, they kept making them from there.

Sounds like they did not???

If they didn't, I guess I got lucky lol. Mine is awesome. Was a pain in the *** to install (or so I was told). But it turned out fantastic. I'll see if I can post photos.

Here are a couple photos of my Auto Power bar being installed (circa summer of 2012).

One during the process (try to ignore my friend Jeff from Project X Customs who was assisting on the install), and one photo of it shortly after it was in place when my interior was being pieced back together.
