The OEM one isnt just the back box, its the middle and back together and they are held on to the cat by a clip.

if you're going for a stainless steel backbox or similar you will have to chop the standard backbox off as it's one piece up to the CAT.
Customize some brackets to hold the new one in place.
You can either weld the new one to the existing pipework or clamp it on!

The same thing that is used to clamp the exhaust onto the CAT

In basic terms it's called an exhaut clamp!

Not sure about the size!
Cut it to suit basically, depends on the size of the new box
You'll need to weld on some brackets aswell to hold the backbox in place.
Unless you'r good with these sort of things, best pay someone who knows how! e.g. exhaust dealers!
