   my exhaust casket needs replacing i have the park but all the bolts have just snapped off, and the garage wont £60 to put it all on, would it be cheaper to buy a new manifold????
   and does anybody in Staffordshire or Cheshire have any t buy and do they fit them?
   i have £80/90 to spend on this problem

   That's really in bad shape. Better to let the local shop handle it for you if you don't have that much patience to fix it yourself.
