In addition: I recently used a combination of stainless steel nuts, bolts & washers and anti-sieze compound when reassemblying my exhaust. Although won't be able to see the fruits of this change for years, I'll bet that the next dissassembly/reassembly will go much much easier. I would recommend using only stainless fasteners with anti-sieze for VW exhausts. Jim Davis 87 GL Syncro 88 GL Wolfsburg
