ive fitted one to mine! when you take the old one out there is a braket on the bottom with a wire attached! all i done was cut this in half, put the bottom half back in it prop place so the wire stays where it should be, then the top half lays flat and bolts the new alloy tank in one hole to the manifold! had it like this for about 8 months and its never moved!
