Inner bracket, towards the center above the gear box centerline.

How well my guys (and their families) eat depends upon beating "book" (read flat rate times) for any given job without (A) Damaging the vehicle, and (B) Not having a "come back", which they do for free on their time. On a 986, the "R&R" (remove and replace) book for the muffler is less than 3/4 of an hour; and everyone of my guys (and myself as well) remove the fascia's. On the later cars, because of the lower diffuser panel in the fascia, it is almost impossible to get the factory muffler off with the fascia cover in place without damaging the car.

Again Thanks; You make a living at this and still take the time. Much appreciated.

edit: Never thought about the diffuser, Guess I can do without one.......
