Neilo, sure it was you I spotted again whilst in the MY03 WRX this morning near big MK A5 roundabout @ 0845ish.
I'm sure you spotted me too.

Neilo,
yes fairly easy. I jacked the car up using a trolley jack on the diff with a piece of wood on it to avoid marking anything, placed a pair of axle stands under the 2 jacking points for safety. Crawled underneath, undone the 2 x 14mm bolts that attach the backbox to the rest of the exhaust, undone 14mm bolt at rear rubber hanger (nut welded, so you don't need to hold it) prise off the other 2 rubber hangers and then do the reverse to fit. Hangers are not easy to prise off, but I used some copper grease on them to refit and they slide on much easier. Don't forget to refit the gasket between the box and rest of pipe. Easily a DIY job!
