Their aftermarket stuff is universally poorer than poor.

The only trouble you may get replacing V6 exhaust is seized mid-to-cat section bolts. Just be prepared - have a good drill, centrepunch, hacksaw and nuts/washers available. Then if you shear bolts, saw them flush, centrepunch and drill them, then use a nut to secure the new bolts (always use new bolts).

small angle grinder with a 'plasma' style disk (i.e. very thin) in it.
