My local one had it for that price.. BTW- Autozone will price match, if like me, they're closer..
THANKS FOR THE TIPOFF...

I'm going to replace the downpipe in my 300SD's exhaust..
Bosal 834-201 or ANSA ME4641
Looks like either, shipped is ~$150+ I accept that..
Is one "better than" the other..
I was considering, having a flange put in, that I could take it apart, to make starter removal easier.. Any thoughts on that??
Would like to order in the next day or two..
...and get ONE step closer to being done?

I run Akebonos on Schweitzer drilled discs on my '92 300D. Never going back to stock again.
