I have a 2002 9-5 Aero, auto, sedan.
Several weeks ago I replaced my OE exhaust system with the GS downpipe and Simmons (GS) cat back. It couldn't have been an easier swap. The GS combo bolts/hangs perfectly with all the supplied hardware (clamps and bolts).
I replaced the two because the cost of only replacing the broken flex pipe by my Indie was already half the cost of replacing the whole system by myself. The incredible rust on the flex pipe flange made the job impossible for me to so by myself.
In the end, the OE downpipe that I removed was perfect (looked practically new at 125k miles!) and the two rear mufflers looked horrible but had no perforations. Nonetheless, I am very pleased with the results.
