Alrighty then! I'll stop by the toy dealer and ask for a 99-01 solara stock strut tower bar. Hopefully it's in-stock (cuz I'm getting it) and I'll post a part number. The number should be on the package or very least on receipt.
MCV20: Does the bar rub the intake collector? As pictured at the top of this thread, the bar looks like it almost touches it.

Mahalo! I didn't make it to the dealer to check on the bar yet. I hope to go this week.

Need help.
I have read the forums and have found that the strut brace/bar pictured here will work for my ES300 (97 V6). I ordered a TRD brace from a 99 Solara and it did not fit (hood interference). Can anyone identify the strut brace pictured and give me info on how/where to purchase. Toyotaparts4u.com is telling me that the 3piece TRD brace (aftermarket ) is the only brace available and that an OEM single piece brace (as pictured) doesn't exist. I have emailed the picture to them to see what they think. Any help here is appreciated. TIA. Dan
