Has anyone changed these pipes for the stainless ones, just wondering what's involved. I alreading have the coolant drained to replace the rad and cooling pipes so seems the best time to do these.

Thanks

Battery out. Expansion tank out. Passenger wheel off.

Get carried away spend more than needed.

Turns into longer term project.

I would be reluctant to swap mine as it took 3 separate sessions to seal where they go into the footwell to stop the rain water coming in!

There is a very significant difference between 97 and 98 models, so much of what has been written here may not be applicable to you.
