Quick question regarding AP exhaust system install

Just ordered myself an ap cat and midpipe. Ive already read that the mounting are diffrent and will sit to high and melt the shrouds. Ive seen that the most popular ways on the forums has been getting adjustable rubber mounts or cutting and rewelding.(not much of a fan of this) i did however locate on ebay a seller selling adjustable heavy duty rubber exhaust mounts except its in the UK and only 1 mount is like $10 + like $13 for shipping. Id personally like to have the rubber mounts over like metal mountings, because their just more sturdy for me specialy on autocross. I know one forum member has done this succesfully by the name of cheesy so if your reading this gimme your advice. If anyone else know somewhere to get adjustable rubber mounting that be great. Thanks.

They work great. You'll have to drill the holes out a little on them so that get over the barbed end on the AP exhaust. Make sure you don't drill the holes too big you want to fit tight. Like Cheesy I used the middle hole on the front two hangers and the bottom hole on the rear hanger.

Good luck!

Cheesy linked the hangers with 10mm holes, but I saw that guy also offered ones with 12mm holes, wouldn't it be a better idea to just go with the larger ones or is that to big?
