Default Roll Bar Question

hey guys

I found this double chrome roll bar that I'm wanting to buy, but It's currently in a 1995 Dakota, If I was to put that in my Ram do you guys think it would look goofy? I mean, would it look way to small on a ram, or would it even fit?

Also, anyone know how hard or about how long these take to take Install, I know I would probaly have to cut, or drill holes in my bed, which I would not look forward to

i doubt the bar will fit at all. but you can do some quick measurments. it will probably be too narrow and not tall enough to reach the top of the cab.

you need to pay attention when you are drilling to make sure you don't hit something under the bed.

To late, apparently he's already hit his head.

i've never really cared, but a tape measure is your best friend when drilling or cutting

Measure twice, drill once.
