It almost kisses the plastic ECU cover when rested on top of the existing bolts, so needs a bit of clearance just there. Loads of room everywhere else. Don't know yet whether I could just get another ECU cover and reshape it slightly by softening the plastic, or whether the brace itself needs some hammer/vice persuasion.

Looks like a KD Racing one to me. But a few KD strut brace pics I've got don't show them being quite that close to the ECU cover.

After a few experimental whacks with a hammer I've got most of the clearance I need. Will definitely fit with some more "reshaping" and/or a reshaped ECU cover. Looks as though the other end had a bit of this treatment before it was powdercoated green.

Looks very similar to this one:



Clearance after a bit of careful bashing:



Needs a little bit more though before it will fit, as it is currently sitting on the bolt heads, not attached to the car.
