Overhead Grab Handle Install

Recommended Posts

Ken has found a set of Seafoam ones, and I need to know how exactly to install them. I can't find any kind of place to put the screws, and there just seems to be a big hole there. Is there some sort of mounting bracket I need?

I love "Oh Shit" bars!

 

As far as mounting, check to see if the roof is double walled (the roof is one wall, then there would be another wall of metal like 1" below it) where the overhead grab handles would be. If so, use some self tapping screws, and go to town. I've never really ever seen any brackets behind these handles in any of the cars i've taken apart in the install bay, I don't see why the W's would be any different.

There's two square holes that you need to install license plate screw inserts into. there's special longer screws, a special square washer and black locator plastic pieces for the ends. (you may need to trim some metal to clear one of the locator holes completely)
