i used the original ones
wat i did was put the pegs on the backbox thru the holes on the top of the rubber (same holes as the ones for the car)
its a tight fit but they will go on seemed to hold it perfectly

might need a bit of washing up liquid to slip em in but it works

nah it should be ok i didnt notise any noises once i had done it
altho one of the rubbers did break while trying to fit it (it was old and cracked to bits) so quick pop down to scrap yard for another!

sorted!

I will be hanging my exhaust on Powerflex hangars. Not that expensive but wil last longer than rubbers...alot longer. And will hold the system better! :)
