The wires are a lot safer if extended as thye do get a little close to the prop if you dont.

Here is a pic of the relocated items



So, just after the cats.

I used these bosses

im gonna have to do this too, as im fed up of clearing the codes every week, mind you the bulb has now blown, so i cant see it, but still have to check nothing else has gone wrong. luckily got a range of welders so piece of urine. nice use of high temp spray thats exactly what i would have done! also if sensors are seized, it might be easier to buy a new pair cut wires to old and let them plug the holes. i have used the universal sensors for a while now, gets through mots on a number of cars and at the price can be changed when needed.

Can probably be done whilst still fitted if you use a ramp.

I removed just the front pipes as it was easier although I seem to recall the holes for the boses were imperial (1inch?) so a 25mm hole saw was used!
