you dont need a ramp. just use the jack in your boot and just borrow some spanners. isnt that hard.

Removing the old one is the hardest part.... oh and you might need to buy an exhaust clamp too, the one on my original backbox was spot welded to the pipe so i couldn't reuse it.
For £10 it is actually worth paying rather than the effort of doing it yourself, unless your lucky and it comes off easy.

is had giving you the clamp with the backbox diddon?
well as the corsa C's arent that old. the standard one comes off quite easy. just spray on some wd-40 around the existing clamp/nuts and leave for a few mins. pop it off the hangers then twist and pull!
