I have gotten a cheap one off of ebay. It has a nut at each end to tighten it up. do i install in and then take all the slack out and make it tight? Also the bolts that hold the round thing at the end habe bolts holding them to the cross piece, should i tighten them as well? What do i have to tak off the top of the towers to install this piece?Thanks In advance

I installed a STB on Friday and felt a difference on the cornering. It just makes the car feel tighter.

It costs usually between 30-45 bucks (remember, it is Ebay, prices change easily). It works great, I've had mine for a long time now, and I love it. The car feels much tighter in the turns
