Thanks guys. Ive already asked the seller for the make of the part.

As far as "Be VERY careful cutting off old rear section so as to have enough remaining pipe to reach the replacement." - the da** thing actually fell off so this is extremely good to know...i will take a look at the existing muffler and see whether a direct replacement will do or whether I have to get other parts replaced as well. Thanks again. Lets see what the seller says. As far as an OEM part I dont see spending twice the amount just for a muffler that might last a little bit longer. Would there be a 'perceptible' performance or sound difference between a regular oem part and non oem part?
