A vehicle exhaust hanging bracket, eg a centre bracket 22, is made of a plastics material, eg glass-filled polyamide, and includes (a) at least one temporary fixation 30, eg comprising upstanding resilient fingers 32, which when pushed into an opening of the underside of the vehicle will at least temporarily retain the bracket in place; (b) at least one through mounting hole 38 for mounting the bracket to the underside of the vehicle, and (c) at least one isolator mounting formation 52, eg of push-and-twist type (fig.15). A further mounting formation 42 may be provided to mount a further component, eg a heat shield. The exhaust system (figs.16,17) may comprise twin exhaust pipes and a pair of mufflers supported by two front hanging brackets (18), one centre hanging bracket 22 and two rear hanging brackets (24). A rear bracket (24, fig.10) may have a single temporary fixation (62), a single through-hole (64) and a single isolator mounting (66). The temporary fixation formations (82, figs 11,12) of a front bracket may be on opposite sides of the through mounting hole (78).
