Default 1.8T rear box

Looking for a new back box. Would appreciate hearing form anyone who's bought one of these.

I haven't bought from that seller, but be aware that the box you'll receive will most likely be a standard 'cylindrical' design and not the OEM clamshell shown in the listing. I've noticed a lot of sellers use the MGR design drawings but actually sell a conventional after-market type. It's what I received when the seller showed the clamshell, and I paid almost twice the price here for a Bosal (who supplied the originals I'm told). It also applies the Rimmer exhausts these days. Nothing wrong with that particularly, but I'd be a bit circumspect on the low price. You tend to get what you pay for so a quality back box budget would go to twice that.

Yes thanks t-cut, I was of the same mind, there'd be a decent photo of it if it was of original design. Think I'll be reaching for the gun gum again, it's only the outer skin that's holed.
