Title: A few questions on installing a vance exhaust system???
Post by: bombadillo on October 02, 2007, 11:31:59 PM
There are really bad instructions with mine and I had some questions.  There are two plates that don't appear to have any bolts with them and I wondered how the heck they were supposed to bolt up.  Does anybody have some close-up pics that they could post so I could see how the can end is supposed to go.  The header part is easy, but the other part is really funky looking.  Any help with this would be great as well as any hints or tricks for future removal and what not.  Thanks in advance!

Thanks a bunch.  The only part I couldn't see though were the brackets that connect the can to the passenger peg area.  How are they supposed to bolt together.  With a few minutes I could probably figure it out, but was just hoping for a couple brief pictures or video would be cool too!  Thanks

I'll grab a couple on the way out this morning. It should be pretty straight forward though.

Mine came with a couple mounting plates.  I ended up getting it so no need for the pictures, but thanks a lot.  I guess the second plate is for another model or something different because it has absolutely no value in this kit.
