- Sun Nov 06, 2011 4:27 pm #280431 thats right, although when I did mine a while back with a tanabe cat back system I got rattling on the heat shields on the S section toward the back so must be slightly out there too... unless it was something wrong with the hatch I was swapping to :?

nothing major though if it does though, just a pita rattle
