Dec 2009 at 13:33 fit each centre section first, soak the bolts to the cache in WD40 every day for about a week before hand. Bolts on mine came straight off.... Fit each centre section, then do the back box last. Helps if you have a second pair of hands it helps

replace with stainless, job done Thumbs Up!

Two year warranty .....is all I know Jimbob. Thumbs Up!

Every exhaust does. Poor ones last less than 2 years (they hope you lose receipt), good ones 5 or 6 years.

I have the same dilema myself

You'd probably fit underneath an Omega .....easier than me Tunnie.... Grin

......

What's his face up the road is likey to send me underneath his MV6 to fit an exhaust Grin

I got some ramps that work well, reverse on, and its just about do-able.
