Just received my roll bar. Going through the instructions on the CD, I noticed that the provided template is for a coupe. Does anyone have the template for a 2011 vert?
TIA!!!

Uhhhhhh, I thought they were different Roll Bars!

It would be nice to see some pics if you get a chance to take a few during the install.

Sorry, 90% in, just gotta finish the door bars. If I had to do it again I would probably pay to have someone install it, only because I have a bad back. VERY HAPPY with it though!!!

They are different. Remember my car is a convertible!
The RPM main hoop mounts to the floor behind the front seats, the MM main hoop mounts down through the top cap panels and to the B pillar.
The RPM rear legs mount about 2/3rds of the way up the wheel well (it is still rising above the mount point), the MM rear legs appear to mount near the top of the wheel well.
The RPM requires that you remove the convertible top pivot brace, the MM doesn't.
The RPM bar has 1/4 steel mounting pads and backing plates, don't know about the MMs.
The RPM bar has a non removable horizontal bar, the MM design doesn't allow it.
The RPM bar comes as a 5 point (6 point optional), the MM bar design doesn't allow door bars.
The RPM comes fully welded, the MM bar requires welding after installation.
I chose RPM after a lot of research of what was available for convertibles.
Forgot to add, the RPM roll bar is legal with most sanctioning bodies for racing.
