1. The rubber mount is extremely stiff on cars that have had the stock exhaust from the beginning of their life. Especially on older cars, you dont have to drill it, just takes a bit of shoving and pushing.
2. First time i've heard that one. Your car may have had non-OEM hanger bolts for whatever reason. Haven't had any problems with this in the past.
3. We don't ship them with locknuts, you just reuse the OEM hanger bolts/nuts. Haven't seen a single aftermarket exhaust for the MR2 that ships with new hanger bolts, none.
So they basically charged you $155 to shove the hanger through the rubber mount and drill the holes on the hanger larger and put 2 locknuts on? Sounds like a ripoff and nothing really wrong with the exhaust.
