it will. I've never seen one that doesn't. best you can do is go to home depot and get a piece of foam pipe insulation to put over it. it's ugly, but effective.

that is true for any type of bar in the passenger cabing, but it fits over the rear package shelf over the top of the 6x9s so it is not directly in the way. as jweller says, you can cover it with a foam cover for daily use, but i don't believe you will need to. it should be around $145 for at least 5 of them. less if we order more. it does mount to the seatbelt anchors on the actual c-pillar behind the plastic panel, so just like any other install, take your time and it should look professional. if anyone at all is interested for a 5th gen we can start a listing. thanks all.

this guy machined pieces for $15 (no added labor costs) or so, looks somewhat sturdy. it doestn sound a lot more to have the ends welded.

I was just looking at the link you posted and all I see is a bunch of Civic/Integra bars.

What gives? If I am going to buy something I have to see a representation of the actual product or no dice.

he's talking about having a custom bar made for the accord since no major manufacturer makes it. But there hasnt been one made yet so no pictures.

I looked in the back of my accord today, a coupe, it looks like u have to cut the interior panel because it covers the seat belt mount hole? I cant see where the mounting holes are, but ithe seat belts come out pretty close to the rear passenger's heads, esp if they are tall. I'm not sure I would want to put a bar there if its gonna be close.

too true. yes, the bar may come a bit closer in the coupes than in the 4 doors (again, i'm not sure, as i've only seen the outside of a coupe's rear deck). but other than that, TypeSH is right, it is a brand new unit, so no pictures are available.

I was under the impression that 2/4 doors had almost exactly the same specs, just the rear doors are cut out for the sedans. But i will go out and try to take a closer look at where this would mount.
