The 2000 + Bonne'* don't come with STB. A big change from the 99 models was the designers moving the firewall in line with the strut towers, so no brace is now required or would, l think, be beneficial.

OK, so STB'* were factory from '92-'99 so why are you going to make them?? There will not be much demand for the 2000+ for the simple reason of they handle really good already, and it would be difficult to make some.

I would like to thank all who responded, but I need all these STB measurements & so far only Will & FiReDeViL have been kind enough to provide them. I still need the older (86-91) Bonneville measurements & the 2000+ Bonneville Measurements too.

Al, I can tell you the distance between the stud closest to the front passenger to the hole closest to the driver is 1036 CM. 518cm to the centerline of the engine bay.
On the 2000 and up, These same holes are 558cm to the centerline, but the 87-91 is identical to the 92-99. Some conflicting data on this.....the 1036 is listed as 1038 in another book.
I don't know the hole pattern size, though. I could make a template and figure it out if you need me to. I can also measure and verify the 1036 or 1038.

did you ditch your car?? 
Your 92 should have the same one mine does, all the way up to 99. I don't have a metric tape measure here, but do at work. All my specs are listed in MM. The 92-99 strut bar will fit the 87-91 like a glove.
The bottom edge of the bar is even with the top of the strut tower, but the top of the bar can't go much higher. In hard cornering, my bar flexes and rubs on the hood insulation.

BTW, my STB rubs the hood too!
Have to modify it for my new hood liner which is Mirrored Stainless!
