Default strut bar

Has anyone installed a strut bar on their GT? Maybe a pic would help to show how you got around or relocated the electronics on the right side.

What I did was hacksaw along the raduis that held the soleniods. That made the cruise control bracket look like the na engine brackets . Then I trimmed up the solenoid bracket as much as I could and clamped it to the bar .

I thought they made strut bars for the Gt WITHOUT having to move things around under hood. as a matter of fact, the vendor forum has a company that has em to fit? I'am missing something? turbomangt

I seriously doubt that anyone can/will make a bar that would fit without moving anything ! Where the solenoids mount where would it tie in?
