the exhaust i had on my 1.2 8v fitted on my 1.4 16v exactly the same :thumbs:

i got my centre section replaced by quik fit, gave the bloke the backbox and said 'would ya mind fitting that while it's off?' slipped him a fiver and it was done :thumbs:

ah ha! That makes life easy! Can anybody else confirm that? Obviously i don't want to take off my old exhaust and then find i need a reducer pipe, which i dont have. Lol!

the 1.2 and 1.4 exhaust's are the same...

it wil bolt stright on

all corsa exhaust are the same from the cat back, except for the 1litre..

i've got a magnex system off a gsi on my 1.2, and it bolted up like the original

Have a look.......With the exhaust join being on a bend, it may be tricky.

Do you know sizes i will need to convert it from 1.4 to 1.2? And what exactly am i asking for:S

Ah, my bad.

You should be able to get a reducer from your local parts place.

The 6x4 was never made specifically for a 1.2! It was 1.4 and upwards, therefore a reducer is needed! Has anyone got any idea where i can obtain a reducer from myself? :S

I was £70 to get a s/s centre section made and fitted. They took my back box off my current exhaust and put it onto my new centre section

Also, they shouldn't need to mess about with reducers. If it's made for the car, it's a straight swap.

:thumbs:

Go to kwikfit/ats/national/wherever, on a Sunday morning, when the boss is out, slip one of the guys a tenner and they'll do it.

there really is nothing you can mess up its 2 bolts and some rubber bits to flick off its a hell of a lot easier than changing seats the worst you can do is not be able to get it on its not like you can break anything 150 quid is a complete piss take

hey, my boyfriend has got a 206 and purchased an exhaust from ledsons. he went to danmar garage and they fitted it for him for £40 and ordered the correct adaptor to fit it! £40 that was all.

lol trust me...i am not touching it! I'll mess it up, I've done everything else myself, Fitting my Calibra seats took the utter piss! I did it, but exhausts a lil diff...if i mess this up the car won't b going n e where!

Fit it yourself. Backboxes are really easy to change. As for the reducer joint, im pretty sure they should be readily available.

But seriously they are easy to change, probably 2 bolts and thats it lol

Heya Guys

I got myself a Magnex 6x4 backbox for my 1.2 SXI. I am about to get it fitted but am having a lot of trouble finding a place to fit it for me. As soon as you mention 'after market exhaust fitting' to most garages they run a mile! My local garage who i use for MOT's said they could fit it, but will find it hard to find the corect 'reducer joint' or something like that as they are not easily available. They rekon it will cost about £150...thats if they can get the adaptor. This can't be right can it? Can anyone offer me any advice on where to get this fitted, or how to go about finding a place? Alternatively, anyone in the South who is competant could fit it for me, and i will pay the going rate! Cheers Guys:thumbs:
