    I have a 01 Cobra Convertable and I want to install a Strut Tower Brace, my question is, What brand Brace is the best, and how hard is it to install the brace yourself?
    Thanks

    I use the Kenny Brown; it is good. But is a PITA to get on and off for engine work, because it mounts under the CC plates and then to the firewall. It eliminates the hard drilling in the tower; but adds some inflexibility.

    I'd look elsewhere.

    The newer KB STB's are as described aboved, but if you can a hold of an older one before they changed their design it's much better and doesnt involve the CC plates or anything. Check ebay or used ones and have it refinished. Here is what mine looks like that I boughy a few years back before they changed the design. Maximum Motorsport also makes one, and maybe Steeda (cant remember).
