Will a WR bacbox from an old shape car fit a new shape? Basically, is the WR upgrade 'box for the new shape the same unit as for the old car?

AFAIK

The box is the same shape but the hangers are completely different.

The only difference is the 3rd hanger.The pipe will bolt sraight on
and back hangers sit OK.You can either adapt 3rd hanger or with
a bit of persuasion it will just about go on (put 3rd hanger on 1st).Did this on my 01 car and it was OK.
