My mates old Scooby Doo Sportswagon has the spare under the bonnet.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Please don't de-activate my card pass!!!!!! :lol:


thats a great idea roni - can we practice on your car? i'll bring my drill and grinder - see you in an hour...

there is worse things than deactivating your passcard - programming it to delete on next use, which means that rather than grumbling and finding another place to park, you will discover its deactivated when you try to get out of the carpark :shock: :shock: :shock:

Stupid hate mail.... :mrgreen:

OK, OK, so we forgive Cam for his inability to post links to image files....

Cam attended the "Tim Allen" school of photography, so the photos are BIG. Arrr Arrr ARRRR!

Not sure how these fit into Cam's story but here we go...

As Caedrus says, fitting a 2.25 system requires attention to stop the drone but I think that applies to all 2.25 systems. If you are able to use the Magnaflow muffler then it shouldn't make much difference. In my case I put a removeable baffle in mine to quieten it down ( I used a super cat 14\"x8\"muffler on its edge).
