Jack the car up on one side, both front and back (or stick it on some ramps if you have access to them).

Undo the clamps that hold the backbox to the centre section, and the centre section to the downpipe.

Take the backbox off the rubber hangers, and slide backwards (no need to remove it completely). Then take the centre section off its hangers and slide it off the downpipe.

Fitting is the reverse of removal (:lol:)

Bear in mind that all the sections will probably be rusty around the joints, so some WD40, a jemmy, and maybe even a blowtorch could come in handy.

Whatever you use, the best way to loosen the joints is to twist the sections off rather than just to pull them apart. Also, if you do use a blowtorch be carefull of fuel lines / tank, and anything rubber that could catch fire  8O
