If you ask the kids behind the counter they even do direct fitment cherrybombs they have a catalouge full off them for most makes and models.

Serious a lad i know bought one for his mk3 fiesta he waited two days for them to order it in 
The direct fitment ones,sound better than the £30 one,its not as loud and sounds smoother.
Still funny though most the stuff they sell there is from the stone age.
still cheaper than halfords though

i'm sure they were meant for rally cars because they were cheap, straight through and disposable
