Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

One of my mufflers is rattling on vibration. Anyone looking to get rid of a set of stock cans? I'd be looking to purchase a set of relatively-low mileage cans, preferably the 3.6L kind.
will the 03's fit on an 99'
I would also be interested if you come up with a price for them. I want to "tinker" with them and see if I can get some sound out of my car...but not TOO much sound!
Tried muffler by-pass.... OMG sounded awesome but I now suffer from a 20% hearing loss too (j/k)
Ed
I have two from my 2001 Carrera with 40K miles. I live in Va Beach. Make an offer if interested. 3.4 or 3.6 the mufflers are the same. Of course my 2001 is a 3.4L
Ed,
Yes, '03 mufflers will fit on your '99. You will have to take the muffler hangers (brackets) from your current mufflers and put them on the "new" mufflers.
Before you install the '03 mufflers, have a muffler shop do the MK II PSE mod. The sound will be better (louder and deeper) than the stock sound, but it wil,l take about 300 to 500 miles after teh mod has been done for the new pipes to burn in and sound better. The mod should cost between $80 & $150 depending upon the muffler shop.
Thanks so much to all for responding!
gillie, PM sent
mikeZ, def interested!
tipstall, going to try for local first. My UPS guy still curses at me for when I had wheels/tires delivered up a few flights.
bella1, my cans started going out in the mid-upper 30ks, so I am bit paranoid on the mileage right now.
