For not even 100 dollars more I bought a used HDHCSD w/ harness bar.

Look around the classifieds.

Who cares what the diameter is, it mounts to the package shelf. Completely useless.

The good "package tray" mounted roll bars are actually mounted to the structural bits under the package tray panel, along with the seat belt towers. I'm very happy with my Hard Dog Ace. It's not JDM, y0 junk, though.
