Has anybody tried a universal exhaust bung?
There's a load on eBay, some look identical to the one Buddyclub sell.

It's something I wouldn't use much, winter to de ice car, early morning starts.

Buddyclubs is £53 Inc delivery. The only thing making me lean towards it, is its a slightly bigger internal diameter. Think 48mm, compared to most eBay ones being 38mm.
So I'm thinking it won't be quite so bad for the engine, back pressure, and power wise.
EBay ones are at most, half the price. The thing that git me looking, is Buddyclubs looks identical to some, even the pictures, you can tell are a stock image.

Buy cheap, buy twice... I guess.

I know it's just a bung, but still I know from experience replica parts aren't really the best choice in the long run, even for minimal use.

Genuine is going to fit, and as you say it has a bigger diameter which will be better for the car, not that you'll be giving it the beans with a bung in.

cheap one which doesn't fit 100% will vibrate like a bitch at certain rpm and annoy the crap out of you
