    16v exhaust manifold?

    How hard are these things to replace?

    Also is there anything else I need other than the manfiold and the gasket and bolts?

    danny you sound like a girl, just get your crap clothes on, book a week off work and go at it hell and leather :D

    not hard mate, just WD40 all nuts and bolts, get a mate to help counterhold some of the bolts.
