Thanks. I’ll give them a ring on Monday.

Do let us know how you get on, I'm in need of one before Sept MOT time.

I have replaced at various times over the last couple of years all three of my diesel tourers back boxes and got them from Dingbro motor factors. They have branches in various towns in Scotland, you may have to get someone in the trade to get one for you. If you have trouble PM me.

I got one from Dingbro about two and a half years ago single piece from tail pipe to around the middle of the front floor well. Had to weld the back box mounting spigots backlot to it at 13 months, it’s replacement a year later came in two pieces. Not impressed the join is level with the anti roll bar. A female dog to avoid it rattling.
I have had two from DMGRS one was a two piece one was a single unit again the back mounts are welded to the back box. Not the way I would choose to do it. Got one from Rimmer Bros for the Spice single piece but the clamp that came with it that goes round the back box only had a bracket on the outside. Perhaps it was missing from the packing. It was so insecure that I fabricated a new spigot to fasten to the clamp so it could hang from a rubber on either side of the box. So much more secure.

I recently bought a Klarius rear section for my CDTi, which I got trade at £80. The pipe work itself was a perfect fit but the hangers were not welded in exactly the correct position and it was a bl00dy nightmare to fit.

The previous exhaust was the same Klarius part number and was spot on but I guess quality control had gone on holiday when the latest one was made.

Got a Klarius one instead from euro car parts. Seems to fit fine. Quality wise - time will tell but I doubt it’s a patch on OE one.

Mine has to be done in the Summer break.
I've seen some on Ebay at £53 odd.
They are the back box and about 2 foot of pipe.
Has anyone fitted these type?
If so how did it go and which exhaust?

Just get the klarius one. It’s cheap and a good fit.
