I have just cut off the rear silencer from my T5 as it has disintegrated! [ATTACH=CONFIG]29126[/ATTACH] The car sounds lovely with it off but on the motorway its like 10 Howitzers going off so looking for a straight on replacement that will bolt on and muffle it SLIGHTLY and look a bit better poking out the back :biggrin: Any suggestions please, something like a cherry bomb sound or similar pel-ease (just spotted a Jetex system but its £600 simoleans) eeeek :c

I'm assuming you have a P1, from your avatar. I have the old one off my C70 you can have, if you have a S or V70 it may not go straight on as I think they're longer at the back, but it has a (rusty) clamp at the back, so it may be extendable. You'll need one of these as I had to cut the hanger off to get it out. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal-Exhaust-Round-Band-Hanger-3-Stainless-Steel-Adjustable-Bracket-Bomb-/251700723454?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3a9a883efe It's in reasonable nick, though obviously well used. The one on the right. Image

Cheers Stribo ahhh. Ive actually got a P1 and P2 and its the V70 estate that needs the box. I had a look under the C70 and its like yours. Otherwise I would have been down to B'stoke to grab it! Mind you I wonder with a bit of welding if that can be converted to fit the estate?
