Valid post, yes, but instructions for what kinds of parts? Exhausts that are purported to have near OEM or OEM fitment are pretty much self explanatory; take off your old exhaust, repeat in reverse order for new components.

Also, maybe you should buy more Stillen! They're the only aftermarket house that thoroughly explains DIY installation (or even, giving the instructions to the installer) completely for almost every part they sell.

Thats a very valid point and dealers should take note of that, some will go in another direction due to the fact that there is no clear cut set of instructions. Keep in mind that replacing is one thing but modding is another.

I'm just a fan of their DIYs. Wish more companies would do the same. I'm still bone stock, lol.

Trying to change it, but vendors here can be slow with PMs occasionally.
