PEUGEOT 207 REAR SILENCER EXHAUST STRAP BAND BRACKET HANGER MOUNT BACK BOX

Saved hundreds with this product due to poor Peugeot design
I own a Peugeot 207 1.4 HDI.
My exhaust silencer supporting arm that my local garage fixed with a strap of metal welded (£30) failed and completely corroded.
I managed to get the old one out using plenty of plusgas thread penetrating lubricant to get the old mounting point out. With this part, fitted myself in half an hour.
Like others have found with this product, the shape wasn't a perfect fit, so that meant that the 70mm M8 they supplied want quite long enough. However, after bending the strap and with some strong pincer grip, I managed to get the supplied nut thread just on. Then it was easy ratcheting it up to fit the second lock nut.
This would have cost more money for a garage to do. And hundreds if they changed the entire back box since there is no separate Peugeot strap.
All in all, great for £9. I can't comment on how long it will last before it corrodes but they 3 year warranty suggests it will do just fine for a while.
