hopefully if the old one comes off.. As its probs never been took off in its whole life will have give it a bashin or two
OR.......

tie a rope to the exhaust and the other end to a tree or a fence etc. get in the car. pin the throttle and drop the clutch. if your luckey only the back box will come off, and the rest of your exhaust, exhaust manifold, engine mountings and rear bumper will be ok and still attached to the car. make sure its a gd size tree cos the last thing you want is to do is pull the tree over on to the top of your car.

back box looks very smart, not to over the top either.

u wudnt have had any problems if u had used my meathod to remove it, i've got a great meathod for putting it back on to. all you need is a wall and a functional reverse gear. :lol:
