    Default Utopia Backrest install on a 2022 RTL - where's the bar?

    According to the instructions, you loosen the 2 bolts 2 turns so that you can slide the backrest bracket above a 1" steel bar that supposedly runs between the 2 bolts. I can't see any steel bar under the plastic cover and the bolt on the drivers side was completely loose and does not thread into anything!!!
    The bracket seemed to install OK otherwise.
    I wonder if this bar has been deleted or was never installed???

    PS; Andy at Utopia was great to deal with during the ordering process. He could not tell for sure what color thread was on my seat, so he has sent some samples for me to compare. The thread on my seat seems to have slight blue tinge.
    Since I wanted to get the backrest asap, I had him make one with grey thread, which looks fine.
