HOw much would a tyre and exhaust place charge to fit an exhaust if you give them the box? Roughly.

changing the box on a golf is easy :D got 2 rubber bushes that hold the 2 hangers...just push the bush on the further side of the hanger (use loads of wd40), then undo the clamp that holds the backbox, hit the pipe with a hammer so that it will move, and try to jiggle the box about (warning, make sure the car is secure on an axel stand as your legs will be under the car)...once the box starts to move move the other bush out of the way and pull the box off :D

now to refit its the same, slot the box and then put the bush closest to you back on the exhaust to hold it up and slot the backbox onto the exhaust as far as you can to make sure it is secure, then put the other bush on and align it but be carefull, when your aligning the box it will try to come off the rest of the exhaust so when your turning it, make sure you are keeping it on by pushing it back, then tighten the clamp
