Default Instructions/tips for installing exhaust tips.

I got some chrome exhaust tips for Xmas and didn't get instructions to put them on. They came from Ecklers. Can anyone help? Thank you.

I assume these are the Corsa tips. If so, they install quickly with few tools. Using a wooden dowel, hammer the tips onto the stock exhaust, hitting the inner retainer ring with the dowel/hammer. Once seated flush with the old exhaust, drill into the old pipe with the provided high-speed bit through the screw hole on the Corsa. Then use the provided self-tapping screws and a little LocTite Blue to secure the new tips in place. They look :cool:, especially if you don't mind the stock exhaust note.

Roy.
