Well, i had the exhaust on a bench and i STILL couldn't get the baffle in. It just doesn't bloody fit. Its also extremely sharp with no where to grip it easily. Anyway, i managed to wedge it in there long enough to hear the engine and make sure the cam chain is OK, which it is. So no need for the baffle until the MOT in 3 years
*in his best punch and Judy voice*So I'm frustrated and achy, pacing back and forth, and decide to take the exhaust off to try and get the baffle out once again. For some reason, I guess it was the way I flipped it around in my hands, the light above me shot down the midpipe hole on the muffler, and for a split second I caught a glimpse of what was inside. I literally facepalmed myself when I realized the solution to my problem. I grabbed two socket extensions (5" and 8"), put them together and placed them through the midpipe hole on the muffler to the back of the baffle. Grabbed a rubber hammer and went at it. I'll admit, a little bit of steam was let off hammering down on those extensions. After maybe 15 seconds of hammering, the baffle is out.
If anyone else is having trouble removing the baffle, or those who have are looking for what I think is a MUCH easier method of removal, I highly recommend giving it a shot.
Thanks for letting me ramble.
