I've got the exact roll bar you point to in your first post. It originally came out of the STI that Raj famously wrecked at Mont Tremblant, I got it from him and mounted it in my Legacy the day before COM changed the rules and made roll bars optional for SP. It's in Peterborough, NH. Email me at frank.perron@aspect.com if you want to save a few hundred bucks.
