with regard to space, is it ok to remove the heat sheild from between the backbox and the spare wheel well and fuel tank to make fitting easier as this would mean i can add a hanger to make my ill fitting uni box a better fitting uni box, or is it likely to explode on long journeys? :P

I personaly would not feel safe in a car with exhaust against fuel tank with no heat shield.

I left my heat shield on and the exhaust is right up against it, onlyproblem with that it rattles and knocks ocassionly. It's only against the spare wheel well no the fuel tank
