dont know mate, but you need to drill it on the end when you get one to fit a bolt through to fasten to your car, if you look under your car when you have the bar you will see what you need to do

Drilling the ends were difficult.
I fit mine today, had to use a hammer drill on the slowest setting possible. Took about 3-4 minutes of drilling each side haha.

Yeh.. was strange. I went straight for the 10mm drill bit though hah.
Tried using a pillar drill only a portable one so not massive. And that did nothing..

I don't think it is guys.. As far as i know all the cavs came with RARBS. Its just on the back of the rear beam. You can't miss it.. however if it's in scrap-yard the bolts and brackets which it's attatched may be rusted.. So take a hammer and chisel!

It has to be a 2WD NON-GSI / NON-IRS Cavalier - so solid rear beam models only

There were variations in thicknesses in models, but whatever one you get will make a difference to a Corsa

IIRC, you can get 22, 24 & 26mm versions.

You need 2x 92mm Exhaust Clamps to support the ARB along the beam too.
