DESCRIPTION

The M2 Hardtop version of the Hard Core Bar is designed for the serious SCCA Solo 1 competitor that wants to maintain a dual purpose car for street and racing use, but doesn't want to give up the hard top or glass rear window convertible top.

Single main hoop diagonal brace and harness tabs standard - a second main hoop diagonal brace may be added for extra strength and better rear vision. Compatible with the M2 (second generation 1999-2005) factory glass rear window convertible top.

Features include:
* Full interior width; farther to the rear than the standard Hard Core allowing better head clearance
* Complete use of hard top and 1999-2005 factory glass rear window convertible top
* Available with durable powdercoat finish or polished stainless steel (optional stainless steel shown in picture)
* Constructed of highest quality tubing 1.75" diam x .120" wall
* Laser cut 3/16" mounting and back-up plates
* Complete hardware kit w/ grade 8 bolts and instructions

SHIPPING NOTICE: These drop ship direct from the Hard Dog Factory. Flat rate shipping shown at checkout applies within USA lower 48 states, not exports.

PICTURE NOTE...picture shows regular hardcore and the hard top version is a little shorter than shown here to fit under the hard top.

Hard Dog M2 Hard Core Hardtop w/ DOUBLE Diagonal Black

Purchased this a few weeks ago and installed it the following week. I have a 3 part video up showing the install of this bar on YouTube (the 'Dirka' Channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZTfxMMxaxAB9qgYLO268pA?

The bar is very solid, and I only had one issue with my bar as on weld was not as good as it should have been compared to the other welds. The powder coat on the bar isn't as good as the stuff I get from my local provider, but the good thing is it is black and can easily be touched up. Overall, with my particular experience with this one product, I would say that it rates 4 out of 5 stars.

It did fit easily enough under my soft top with glass window and my factory hardtop. I did the install myself, so it can be done with one person, but having a second set of hands would be extremely beneficial. Additionally, the instructions on line are pretty good with the exception of the drawings for the pieces of the package tray that need to be cut out... I took my time and placed the roller in to get measurements and did this until I was satisfied with the amount of material that needed to be removed.

Another part is if you are going to be reinstalling all the interior pieces, take your time and slowly (and if necessary) remove the piece that needs to be trimmed until you get a nice fit. This part took the longest as I wanted it to look like it was a factory option rather than aftermarket....

On the plus side, this is a good way of adding additional suspension stiffening and protection at the same time.
