Default How to remove stock exhaust off Scion xA?

I recently bought an axleback and I want to install it myself. Anyone have a guide on removing the stock exhaust?

theres a clamp in the rear. take it off, and pop the hangers off the rubber grommets holding it in. reverse.

This is for the xB, but the concept is the same.. https://www.scionlife.com/forums/xb-tech-diy-1817/exhaust-installation-dc-sports-6318/

Please, NEVER DO THAT! Don't get underneath a car that's supported only by the jack, it is possible that the jack could fail or tip and down the car comes. There are lots of people every year that are killed or seriously injured by their car falling on them. Google "car falls on man", or something similar. Jackstands are cheap, you can find them for $20 at Sears, Walmart, Kmart, Harbor Freight, pretty much anywhere that sells that kind of stuff. Twenty bucks is cheap peace of mind.

Edit: Are you talking about the donut gasket? If so, it goes between the new and old, where the clamp is. In pic 8 in that walkthrough you can see it.
