Rear Sway Bar

I thought I read somewhere that the 2012 Fit Sport has a rear sway bar, and the Base does not. The parts catalog does not show an extra part on the rear suspension of the Sport, and I went to the dealer and LOOKED under a Sport and A Base and they appear identical.

Does anyone know the real story about this?

Any aftermarket recommendations for a light rear sway bar kit. My 2012 base is fun to drive but has a bit too much understeer for my taste.

Thanks

Been debating the Progress bar in my mind ever since late last year when the big debate thread popped up about its effectiveness and how it actually works to combat roll without a fulcrum point.

I have concluded in my mind that it will indeed work, and I suppose I should buy one. I wish they made a thicker one than 19mm...
