Stainless Steel exhaust and winter pack

Hey folks, it's getting that time of year when the Bongo will be back on the road for the lovely winter. Looks like I'm going to need a new exhaust and I'm think along the lines of a stainless one like here

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BONGO-EXHAUST-MAZ ... _500wt_951

we'd get it fitted up here by a local garage but my problem is that our Bongo has a winter pack and I know that there are some exhaust issues with that and non winter pack Bongos. So, if I have the local garage remove the annoying winter pack stuff will an ordinary off the shelf stainless exhaust fit or does the pipework need to me changed?

I'm confused really! :!:

We had ours replaced at MIJ Performance in Walsall - it was about £230.00 fitted for a full stainless system. They have an eBay "Buy-it-now" store as well and will deliver.

Ours originally had the winter-pack thing, they were well aware of what to do and blanked off the vacuum pipe.

I'm guessing Walsall is a bit far to go though #-o :D

Simon Jones has given some advice about blanking the pipe, ON THIS LINK.

Sorry, not much help with the winter pack but MIJ posted a system to me no problems.
