[QUOTE="cobraracer46, post: 9664515, member: 13924"] I'm not a big fan of light bars as they don't add any stiffness or safety in the event of a roll over. Convertibles need all the help they can get in the chassis stiffness department. On my 2001 convertible, I welded in a Griggs racing roll bar and frame kit. With these parts, the car feels stiffer than a hard top and the squeaks and rattles are eliminated. Some people might call these modifications overkill, but overkill is exactly what is needed to stiffen up a mustang convertible. Griggs racing roll bar(welds to B pillars and rear bulkheads instead of bolting in to the paper thin floorpan) [IMG]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3429/3255494757_97bd7e5206_b.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3402/3256325258_e069e655a3_b.jpg[/IMG] Griggs frame kit(upper frame rails that connect to lower sub frames and bulkhead stiffeners that increase chassis stiffness 1000%) [IMG]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2782/4300916934_7178890b4e_b.jpg[/IMG] By the way, congrats on purchasing an 01 Cobra.:beer: [/QUOTE]
