I thought I might aswell ring an exhaust place early Monday morning to get a quote to supply and fit a back box, gave him my phone number.
I told him it was an auto, and is the original pipe so it will need cutting.
Did not hear anything by this afternoon so drove to the Garage (about 7 miles away).
He had written my number down wrong, the part was in so I drove it on the ramp and he started to try and cut the pipe with one of those cutters you linked to.
I mentioned that I had found out there are at least 2 types of rear box that could be right for this car, I knew this because I had messaged a few sellers on Ebay on Sunday and some said there are a few options, but the exhaust guy said no this is the correct part.
I could see he was getting fed up trying to cut it, kept stopping, then came to get me to try and convince me I needed the mid section replaced too.
I told him I had spent a long time under the car on Sunday and it looked fine to me.
So he had another go and managed to cut it.
Then he lowers the ramp and says the part is no good because the end of the new box is too flared and he will order another part and to come back at 4pm.
I told him I have the old original box in the boot and the serial number on a piece of paper if he needs it, but he said "no I know what to order".
I rushed back at 4pm and he said it's no good the part they delivered is the same with a flared end. He said a piece will need to be made to connect to the old mid pipe and new box pipe.
