Exhaust parts--Pls. tale my word--Don't self fabricate-buy on the Internet..

I lost the center muffler on a gasser--really it was just a resonator. I thought I would be a hot shot and fabricate my own and save myself the $160 for the part.

By the time I had wasted one day, a spool of mig, and bought an aftermarket resonator,replaced a 12 cutoff wheel, grinder blade, and a half a tank of MIG gas and gas for trips back and forth to a tubing shop I think I saved a total of $1.

The next time--heed my advice--buy the part on Mercedes Shop. Its half the cost of what the dealer wants and it takes 15 minutes to bolt in..Right now I am exhausted and feeling foolish!!!!!
