This might be a long shot but I am looking for a rear sway bar for a 15 and up Honda Fit. Anybody?

I don't have one for sale, but I have this one on my car:

I've never seen a sway bar like that before.

The rules get a little different when you are dealing with a torsion beam...

Matthew--> Do you see a noticable difference after putting the rear bar on?

In reply to dxman92 :

I do, but I did not do it scientifically. I put the bar on shortly after changing from 185/55-16 on 16x6 to 205/50-16 on 16x7.5. I cannot comment on how much understeer/oversteer is really affected since I have a bit more grip than before. I also have not been sliding the car around since I have a traction control nanny and have not successfuly managed to get it all the way off.

The car does seem to have less body roll, so the bar does appear to be doing its job.  It is not a huge bar, however, so there is no night/day like going from no bar to a big bar.  As I recall, the bar is only 9/16".

I ended up finding a used one on eBay and had it put on last week. It does make a noticable difference during daily driving!
