No need for pics. Its 2 pieces on 3/16x1 1/2 flat bar about 5 inches long welded to the crossmember.

I like these hex tube adaptors from the Chassis Shop. I know they are high priced but they are better quality then your average "good for the farm" hardware.
A good friend of mine used a lot of Chassis Shop items on his mid engine CRX project and from what I've seen (for a few bucks extra) I recommend them. [insert gay smiley here]

I had a DA teg here i raided for parts then turfed to the wrecker.I wish it wasnt so far I would have shipped it to you.I was thinking we/you/I/somebody should get ahold of the Integra club the Canadian one and find out who is local to you and get them to drop there car off for a few days so you can fab some up.If I owned a Teg I certainly wouldnt mind riding the bus for a couple days to get some free traction bars/crossmember.

MMM there is a Integra CLub in Canada? Post a link and I will get on it. A good set should onlty that my a few hours to rough up and then to put final touches on latter. I would still get a front end clipped off from the wreckers for a jig though like I do with the EF chassis.

met a guy online the other night.. he's got a DA with a Del Sol radiator.. seems as though the del sol radiator is different than the EG Hatch and coupe halfwide radiators.. so it will fit :D .. i may still do a traction bar, but might wait a while to do it.. got more pressing things to get done first.
