$45.88 new from GW. I assume you know that your IROC is already equipped with a Wonderbar.

It's a good deal beefier, but I agree with 86. Spend your money on something you don't already have.

Re: global west wonderbar
I've had issues with the fitment of the GW bar. I'm not the first either if ya do a search.... I'd spend a bit more & get a different brand.

Interesting. The GW fit both the mechanical and the dual electric (both GM) that I'm currently running. No fitment issues with either.
