i have to agree it would suggest your back box is knackered,so whats your local factors like? trouble is you dont know really till you get the part,pauls suggestion on stainless makes sense but i think they would want to fit a full system(i may be wrong, apologies to pab in advance) which TBH would be out of most of our budgetary constraints,so if moneys tight its either fleabay or your local factors

Well, the only one I know where I am is Sure parts... They are normally pretty reasonable, but I somehow think it would be a look alike box as to oem quality... Can't even seem to find an original on eBay.... As for stainless steel, would live it, just have not got the funds for that kind of thing though..

I got lucky and got a v6 cat back powerflow stainless exhaust £30 on eBay and it fitted straight on using a 54 to 60 reducer pipe
