Also noticed there are some irregularities on they're web :?

Will have to check with the Local Bosal agents ... :?

Guys so you say even this is not correct, I enquired on the Bosal website and they say they can get it, I told them its a 62 beetle and 1200 and the guy says it can be organised...not sure now... :(

Hi

I have one of these on my '67, the inlet pipes for the silencer that match upto the exhaust manifold pipes don't align properly and required some rubber mallet induced persuation. It still doesn't fit! And no, I haven't dented or bashed it out of alignment, it just doesn't fit properly. Hope you have better luck with yours ...

Yes, but Bosal says this is NLA. Despite that, I have bought several of them over the past 10 years, which is how long they've been saying it's NLA. Last time I bought one they only had the silencer, not the tailpipes. Also, they only had the one with the outlet on the right (baywindow); left is correct for split bus, but they are interchangeable.
