Default 2005 Shaker system + tower strut bar problems

OK so I'm gonna pony up the 800$ for the shaker system because it looks sexy, I'm wondering if I can still install a tower brace overtop of it. Will there be enough clearance from the back of the shaker?

I have a dealer installed shaker and I do not believe there is a brace that works with the shaker. I read in Modified Mustangs magazine somewhere in the adverts about a Steeda brace that triangulated,but, the picture was small and I have not investigated further. I highly doubt there is room for one.

LOL! He's not refering to the Shaker audio system, tho I do agree with you for 800$ he can get a much better system there! The shaker he is refering to is an air cleaner/intake/hood assembly.
