Where can I find instructions on how to install a new exhaust?

I just got my new Milltek exhaust in the mail, and I have a friend that will let me use his lift for an hour or two tonight, but I want to be prepared. What tools will I need to remove the factory exhaust and install the new one?

If this just bolts to the downpipe then the v-band clamp is 16mm deep socket. It's nice if you have a new gasket too.

Then you need the socket size for the clamps that came with the kit. Probably 16mm too.

10mm socket to remove the under brace.

Everything else just hangs on the rubber pieces.

I want to add 13mm socket to this list if anybody sees this in the future.
