Disclaimer: The following is provided as a GUIDE ONLY, and neither myself nor Ozhonda take any responsibility for the outcomes of someone else doing the following. You follow these steps at your own risk!
Aim: To increase rate of chassis response :thumbsup:
Note: ride quality can take backward step in comfort terms.
Required:Spanner and socket set, patience.
Steps:
#1. Ultra Racing do not make a room bar for the DC2R - but the one for the 4dr EG fits perfectly (you'll need this). This clears the rear of the STOCK AUDM ITR HAND BRAKE COVER with about 10mm to spare. If this is been changed - fitment may be in question.
#2. Remove front seats belts - from lower bolted position.
#3. Remove the end retainer (which stops the washers from taking a holiday) - from one of bolts. See 2nd pic. The side (drivers side for mine) without the retainer is to be installed last.
#4. Assemble the bar in its shortest length and keep it all loose.
#6. Fit passenger side - (room bar with seat belt bolt with complete sequence washers and end retainer) to the car (keep this bit loose as well for now).
#7. Drivers side. If you can shorten the bar sufficiently with the entire seat belt bolt and washers and manouver them in place for install, great. If not - undo the end retainer (now the washers are free to fall so be carefull - you could tape the 2 end ones together ?). If necessary - securely install washers first. Just make sure they dont end up between the carpet and chassis.
#8. Adjust the length of the bar (with "a little" bit tension) between the b pillars - and secure its extended position.
#9. Tighten the seat belt bolts and and enjoy.
