Fitting new bacbox?

[Lew77]

hiya, right so i just bought a backbox off a lad on here. now im guessin since he had it on a saxo it wont need welding or anythin but im confused as to how i take my old one off? once i undo the clamp will it just pull off? i had a little search n couldnt find anythin cheers. also http://img707.imageshack.us/i/questoin.jpg/ is that pic right?? thanks guys

first things first. have a look, then try. it's simple

It'll just pull off, but is not really a performance issue it should be on the problems page.

Why did the other bloke take it orf?

your back box has a buldge on the end of it, which sits in the flare at the end of your center section, the clamp literally just holds them together snug. so to answer your question, just unbolt the clamp then slide the back box off, then when you put the new one on, reverse the steps you took and add some fire paste to seal it better.

sound and i didnt no where else to put it. if the mods see this then move it to appropriate section thanks.
and cause he got a new car i think
