That should be your user name Jim and me? Mickey Mouse. The Monza Tips fit my 2 1/4 tailpipe as a slip fit. I had the muffler guy install with a small tack weld...Drilled the hole for a through bolt and then cut the weld with a hack saw.
Something to note for anyone wondering how these "Tips" can reduce noise? Jim called it a resonator (true) and I would say it is constructed like a small glass-pack muffler. They are straight through with some light packing around a perforated core. On the Monza's this core is well under 2" in diameter resulting in what you might think is restrictive.
I got a pair of Monzas for $27.50 from Summit in 2003. That was much cheaper than replacing the mufflers to reduce the noise. Without tips to with is like from a 9 of 10 to maybe a 6. TigerBlue is not a quiet car even with tips. Good thing I am in California.
