Just a word to the wise... When you replace the muffler, and you will soon, get an OEM muffler. I made the mistake of saving a buck with an aftermarket muffler . Between the edge of it unavoidably rubbing and bouncing against the underside of the car making an annoying noise coupled with that it sounded like hollow tin can, i tore it off and threw it in the steel scrap dumpster at work after one week. But hey, you might like that...I didn't.

I'm OE 99% of the time. Yes, I would get OE muffler along with OE nuts/bolts/gaskets too
