See the sig for year.

It's easy. I've done it on my car, and helped a buddy do it on his 4th gen. I got mine from Custommaxima.com

I just put mines in yesterday, i love it, i paid 25$ on ebay, i installed it myself because i also did my y-pipe , the hardest part of the hole job was removing the cat bolts, i could shift with almost a flick of a wrist.
