Exhaust of a Mk5 3dr Escort fit on a Mk5 5dr Escort?? To save getting under it on the nice wet drive way, wondered if anyone knew!? Ive got a 5dr now but had a 3dr and have taken the exhaust off the 3dr to utilise the cat!

You'll have to sleeve it probably, but shape wise is fine, and hangars will be ok too!!

Just had a call from a local exhaust distributor to say that the 5dr and 3dr would be the same part number!! Result!! Saved me £100!
