I wish you the best, but this isn't a 1 evening job. As far as tips, when you get the old exhaust off, turn around the motor mount bolts. Also I cut a 7/16 wrench in half so it would have enough room to turn next to the firewall.

Hookers are pretty cool. I noticed the difference once I got them on the car. Enjoy!

Default Merry Christmas!

I just installed a set of 2151's a couple of weeks ago. When you do the passenger-side install, start with #8...it's a real pain...very tight working back there. I had to come at it from the bottom with a crow's foot, swivel, and extensions.

Other than that, and reversing the motor mount bolts, it's a pretty straight-forward installation. They made a tremendous difference...you'll love them!

Merry Christmas, all!
