Is there a tip to reconnect!? Can’t seem to get them to stay back in?

I used a bit of fairly liquid to help get them back on. I guess if they are not staying in it is because they haven't been pushed back on far enough to be secured by the clip. Maybe a little lube will help get them all the way on.

You could also buy a remote exhaust flap opener - I got the MTM one and press button on a fob to open or close.

Think I may go Cete - like the integrated element and the wife won’t know I’ve done anything. The minute she saw a fob she’d know I’d been <beep> around..!
