If both are saloons/estates then they should but depends on where the joins were made in the original stainless system - same place as original or an inch or three further back?  Centre sections might be short or over long otherwise...

Hi
What element of the MOT did they fail on? If stainless I assume they did not leak so why did they fail?

Elite now gone.  Bought an X-Type 4x4.  If there had been an Omega 4x4 I would have bought that instead.  We really liked the Omega, but I wanted 4x4.
