We would need a lot of light -- some good tools -- and a **** ton of lube!
I don't like working in the dark though -- I think it would just be better to have a shop do it as they can do it faster than we can

The thing is i don't wanna make this an all day thing, I rather just go to a shop and we split the cost of the job since we both getting the same-thing done (out with the old in with the new).

I want in an out! Money isn't an issue if thats what you guys are getting at -- i rather spend $100 bucks than spend the whole day under my car trying to get the rubber loose on the exhaust.

If you guys wanna do an install meet thats fine by me -- but this weekend is memorial day and i might be gone so I'm trying to get my exhaust installed on Friday.....
