It should well do yes, was it previously on a VTS? Or is it new?

Yeah, is it a 2 piece brace? With a thread/nut in the middle?

if its like mine it has adjustment at both ends where it mets the strut plates.when fitting it put the plates on and do nuts up a little but so the plate can still move.the put the brace in both ends altering it however you need to to fit.the once that is fixed to the plates do the nuts up on the top of the strut.securing the plate to the strut.
if you do the plates up to tight first then you cannot line it up properly.i got an etech one from demon tweeks so its probably the same
