muffler hangers on a V6 question

i just wanted to know if anyone know if the driver side can just have muffler mounting hangers screwed in just like they are on the passenger side?

are the screw holes already there? or do they have to be welded?

thanks

Holes are there and I believe the bolts are self tapping. Mine are collecting dust until I get the GT/CS bumper installed.

Same here, the hangers just bolted right up, the holes were already there. No need to weld the driver side in - the car is stamped and cut the same for the V6 and GT so the muffler hanger will mount up no problem

you could just run a tap through them or use the ones from passenger side to clean the holes out then pick up bolts at home depot plus you will have two extra bolts from passenger side just need two more.
