Hey guys,
Will these headers fit a Gen3 Wagon without modification, just checking. Hoping they will bolt straight up.

They look very much like the one's on my Wife's MY02 RX Liberty.
If they are the same, expect them to crack at some point down the track. Mine have been on for 6 years and have cracked again after being repaired about 4 years ago.
They will also melt the LH steering rack boot after a while and you will need to cut the plastic undertray for clearance, or it will melt it.
If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

Thanks, might stay away then. Seems like more hassle then they are worth.

Only issue is there is nothing else around for the price.
TBH I'm probably a little jaded in my opinion, after all, they have been on the car for years and I did not buy them new.
If you wan't to spend less, then you will need to hunt for a second hand set.
IIRC mine are Borla replicas.

The stone tray can be cut to clear, or even removed completely.
Apologies if I have scared you off.
