Hey, someone PM me a measurement between the front bolts on the towers. If that width is the same I should be able to use this on the PA.

The only difference between the Riviera and Bonneville is that the Riviera had a different strut tower mount setup from 1995 to 1997 I believe. 1998-1999 has the same setup as the Bonneville. I don't THINK that the strut tower brace will work on the 98+ models. I thought it only worked on the 95-97'*, but I could be wrong.

OK, the 97-98 Riv should work with 2000+ Bonnies, but not 92-99. It should also work on the 00+ LeSabre and Aurora, as those are also based on the same G-body roots. It may work on the 97+Park Ave, but I won't know until someone can measure between the towers from the front bolts.
That is IF it works on any of them.
