How long and how hard is it to change the de-cat to a cat, can it be done in 30 mins from start to finish inc putting all the tools away?

How difficult is it and what tools etc will i need?

Cheers

Danny

4 bolts, usually M8, just need 2 spanners. Takes 2 mins

Could take longer depending how rusty the bolts are...

yeah if they're rusted solid u'll need to soak them in WD40 for a while and let it work in.

I spent a day rounding off the rusted bolts, a day sawing them with a junior hacksaw, then wasted a day because renault gave me the wrong size bolts. twats.

i couldnt remember the thread size i needed, so i figured the parts desk would know. Turns out they didnt.

They're all greased up, so hopefully will last 9 months before i have to MOT the beast again.
