Default Exhaust fitment problem

I have just bought a prodrive backbox off a 03 wrx to go on my 06 wrx but have noticed the single hanger arm at the back of the backbox is the opposite way round.
Will i still be able to fit it ok? Any help much appreciated.

Dunno but I just bought an 01 box for my MY98 WRX and it was the wrong way round, so I got the hangar chopped off and turned 180 degrees then welded back together again. Will be fitting soon and hopefully it should be as simple as that.

Would it be possible to just let the exhaust rear hangers take the weight or would it knock underneath?
