Default Corsa tips install Q

Just got the Corsa Pro Series tips for my '00 vert. Unfortunately, collge for our son this fall blew the mod budget out, so no Pace cars until next year. So.....ordered these.

Travelling all week and planning on installing this weekend when I get back. Question - before I left town, I took one out of the box and placed it over the stock '00 tips and it would not go on at all. Might be a dumb question, but do you have to remove the stock tips 1st? If so, how? There are three tabs that should go over the pipe and then you drill and install the moiunting screw.

Or did you take yours to a muffler shop and have them do it?

Just wondering.......

if your tips are like mine, I had to line up the 3 tabs, and the hit the tip with a block of wood to get them to slide on, the I just jacked up the car and drilled the hole for the screws and installed the screw, be sure they are lined up straight before drilling, good luck
