Go with GM for both... you can get them cheaper (ie. Junkyard prices) than Mantapart...
He is right.^
I have the GM STB, Mantapart RTB and a Mantapart lower brace (Not installed yet).
Let me tell you, I bought the RTB because it was a one piece--welded.
Now when installed it, I did notice a difference in the back end of the car and even more so on the track.
But...
Expect from Mantapart lousy customer satisfaction with a longgg wait and mediocre products. Both RTB and lower brace I had to work on it in order to fit (hammer it) and repaint it.
On the other hand GM piece is excellent.

do u think it is a good deal to get the gm stb and mantapart rear for $90?

Del-Car Used Auto Parts -- Westerville, OH
Buckeye Auto Parts of Columbus, Inc. -- Columbus, OH
According to Car-part.com, they have a couple Cavi verts in their inventory (I ran a search for convertible top motor)
You will get a better deal there for something w/ guaranteed fitment for a better price than $90 (I'd say $50 tops)

Both for $90? I take it would be from an individual, not Mantapart directly. If that is the case... yes.
Now you may run in to the problem like I did with fitment issues.
If you are buying directly from Mantapart, expect what I said in my initial thread.^^
In my case, after I cleared the fitment issues, I am satisfied with how the rear tower brace performs.
Now on the GM STB, hands down the best one for 95-05 Js. It may not the prettiest, but GM here decided to do function over form.
