You have to get an exhaust shop to weld it onto the 4th gen system. It will hang in the hangers nicely, the opening in the bumper cover needs to be made slightly larger as well.

it not only fits but it flows better. It has a double chamber one for daily driving and one that opens for gas to the floor flow. this way u get some of both quiet operation and go flow only when u need it. It's not as good as some after market models but better than 95-99 model

Because it wouldn't be the same muffler My reason for having one is that my stock muffler is quickly rusting away, and a 2002 muffler was a better solution for me than aftermarket.

For those that replaced their stock 4th gen muffler with a 5th or 5.5 gen muffler, did you have to change anything or was it plug and play capable?
