I had mine fitted under my car.
All the parts needed are included though.

i meant a local garage or a place like jbs and other tunning places sorry!

Any place with a ramp should be able to do. Very simple job really once the car is up so that you can get under it.

Mine was fitted by Awesome but there was a problem as my car did not have the cupra bumpers

My rear bumper DID have a cutout in it (which I did phone Miltek about ) but it still would not fit

I had to have the rear box cut off and re fitted a few miles up the road

I don't think it will be that hard if you have the correct tools to do the job(nut gun/ramps ect)

right as i would like to do this myself and if its just a few bolts i think it will be ok only to parts to connect the middle to rear silencer and middle to cat so ill have a look at it and see what happens

Gaz if you dont want to do it on axle stands on the drive, I would take it to a local exhaust place. When I fitted my Cupra exhaust bits from Devonmike, I took it to Tanvic Tyres - £30 sorted

IIRC you have to cut the system at the rear to clear - I think it indicates where to cut. This will also allow the new owner the chance to buy an OEM sleeve to fit the system to their car.
