I wasnt sure if i should have posted this in suspension or interior. Well i'm planning to to stiffen up my chassis with several tie bars and strut bars. So i was looking into c-pillar bars as well. My main concern is when it is installed, would i be able to still use my rear seat belts? Or are they gone for good.

seat belts still work, you will get complaints from rear passengers though, at least i do

Thats good to know. Maybe i can cover them with those "Honda" Seat belt pads, so it doesnt hurt as much. Haha thanks a lot guys.

Do you guys have any pics of them in your cars?

they will also protect your passengers aswell as my very good friend found out when he rolled his ek9

my friend still has the ek9 in his garage i will try and get some photo's

I kinda agree, they're made for hatches which don't have the same lateral structure that coupes do, ie. the rear shelf. Seems kinda redundant to mount one on a coupe. If you really want one by all means go for it.
