As above. All the 1100 Seis had an ARB, I think the 889s didn't. Easy enough, given a lot of plus gas and patience. If from a scrapper, get all the bolts and brackets.
But do you mean an ARB or a strut brace?

OMP are the only people making them at the moment. 3 types, one straight one (actually for the Cinq), which will fit SPI Seis and MPI cars not running the stock airbox, one cranked one for the MPI and a wierd one for MPI with anti lock brakes.
You have to fit them so that the bottom of the strut brace fits directly on the top of the front shock turrets, and this means moving the expansion tank and ECU brackets. Sometimes it's necessary to make new ones up or cut the old ones.
There are two for the front: the bottom one should only be fitted to track day cars and then, only at the track, as they will catch big style on speed bumps, potentially wrecking the suspension.
Every bit helps!

cheers for that.
Is it REALLY worth fitting one then? Im only looking to improve handling during city driving etc. Are they a bu**er to fit?
Really depends how you drive in the city!
If you drive like a pizza delivery man, probably worthwhile. But for city driving the brakes, wheels and tyres are probably more important.

'City' in East Lothian. Where would that be then?

perhaps its that big Capital City with 0.5 million population which abutts the town in reside in......
Ah, the one in Midlothian, thats what I thought, but I wondered whether Athelstaneford (pronounced 'Elsenfor') had been awarded city status in my absence.
