It isn't structural, but it is original on the TA through TD. These cars
came with a half-tonneau cover, not the full cover most of us prefer
today. The bar supported the front of the cover to keep it looking neat.
Elastic straps snapped to the seat back below the bar kept the cover
taught.

If cars had evolved as fast as computers have, by now they'd cost a
quarter, run for a year on a half-gallon of gas, and explode once a day.
