exhaust clamps

hello gents

the old exhaust clamps from the center section to the rear box have cracked and fallen off, do you remember where the retro fit clamps can be picked up and how hard it is to do ?

cheers

Not hard to fit mate,just jack the car up and take the passenger rear wheel off,and there it's looking at you,you may have to give the old ones a little tap with a hammer to get them off(Depends how rusty they are ) I don't think new gaskets are a must,but do it any way.If I can do it anyone can,except Shimmy.:hahaha:
