Default Harrison sidepipes - mounting

My sidepipes arrived from GAS-N Performance Products - Home last week. 304 stainless and quality work as you can see below.

Just wondering how Harrison owners have attached the body of the sidepipes to their cars, given the flat floor and limited ground clearance?

It seems like the best option is to fix a bracket to the sill, maybe a piece of angle? Someone suggested using a few nutserts in the side and bottom of the chassis rail where the body is fixed.





These sidepipes are made to suit Factory Five and come with a nice mounting arm that pivots off a chassis rail and uses something similar to a rubber exhaust hanger to allow it to flex as the engine revs, and I suppose over bumps in the road. No good for the Harrison unfortunately.

Here's a photo showing the mount on the pipes, which can be easily moved. And below that a trial fit that I did last week.
