Yep... same here. $50 to have them MIG welded. Buy yourself one or two cans of undercoating to spray over then once they're in. If you get the connectors that have the two bolt holes then you're golden. Tighten up the bolts to synch them into position then weld away. Make sure that the suspension is loaded when you weld them. Don't let the muffler shop weld them in with the car on a body lift. Use a lift that leaves the car sitting on the wheels.
