The rear muffler for the 1991 740 Turbo that is supplied by FCP, a Starla muffler, does not have any hooks or any apparent means of supporting it from the two hangars that are above it on the car. The only thing on the muffler appears to be a heat shield. A picture is at this link:

How is the muffler supposed to hang from the car? Is there a bracket of some kind that wraps around the rear muffler, like the bracket for the front muffler? Or is there some kind of cradle for it? How can it be mounted?

The local Advance Auto only has the type of hangars that clamp around the pipe and have a piece of metal strap attached. They do not reach or fit the car's built in hangars.

Help, Please.
