I struggled to find one on its own and ended up buying a GM one from Vauxhall. I think it was around £10 but I can't remember for certain. If you want one asap that might be your best bet.

My local Vauxhall are really good! I ordered it in the morning and had it by 3pm the same day

Yours might be able to do the same. The only problem is whether or not they close early on a Saturday?

Old one is off! Very easy job but took about 3 hours, due to few bolts already rounded off, and downpipe to cat had nut missing, and bolts was twisted, as space was very limited as car is lowered alot it made job very hard!
Hope new one gets here soon, tried vaux earlier no answer:@

Not that I can see, do they all normally come with one? They must do, surely?

Well, from my own and other Sportex ones I've seen.

Aftermarket ones normally come with a nut welded in and a bolt to plug the hole in case you don't want to run one.
