You can have the tips cut off, pound out the resonators and re-weld the tips back on. Its not quick or easy, but doable.

Can buy (if you find anyone selling some here, the megs resonator delete tips, but they don't come with hangars unless seller is selling with them still on) it far and few between that they are listed. I think magnaflow has a close looking tip but it is 22 inch long, where factory tips are 26 inch long. plus will need hangars welded on.

Weld the tips back on

Does it look like this down the tip? smaller diameter about half way down or so?

To delete them just pound them out with a rubber mallet at the rear?

It has to be removed from the cut off spot towards the tip. I've never done it myself . My car is loud enough with blower, x pipe etc.so I still have resonators

Cut the tips off

Pound out the resonator towards the cut end

Cut right at the start of the chrome.

Stand it upright straddling two bricks with business end up.

Insert blunt object till it touches the resonator.

Beat the snot out of blunt object with a 4# sledge.

Re weld.

Or pay an exhaust shop to do it in under 30 minutes for $30 like I did many years ago. If mine were cleaned up I'd sell them to you. But no time for that..

Resonator delete was not an option from the factory..........

It's either an exhaust shop option or shade tree mechanic option.
