Did my clio one last week. Overall fine although grinding the old bolts off was a tad scarey

Did mine with no ramp, was just a bitch to remove and fit the manifolds.

What about backing the rear wheel up on the highest kurb you can find?
Can sometimes get much higher ground clearance and its safer!

did a manifold back on a 306 gti today with it on stands on the lowest setting. not hard but a bit awkward, especially when you can only just fit under the car!

do this in my garage
just park half on the slope, so much easier.. just chock front wheels put in gear and back on axle stands to fit my back box
although its good when you got a 4poster in your garage tooo or aload of 2 posters at work
