		The mid pipes are exactly the same, its just the backbox that's different.

		You're wrong mate 
I've fitted a hatch mid section to my estate and the back box olive was 2-3" further back towards the front of the car compared to the estate mid section

		They do appear different on parts sites as well. I can't see it being too hard to extend the midpipe a few inches.
Why just ask them to make it a bit longer for you? From their ebay page, they say they make it themselves

		I've just asked them.
Any one else who would be interested in a straight through middle section for a hdi Estate?

		I found when I done my hdi conversion on the estate that the mid section was a couple of inches shorter on a hatchback I had to extend it to make it fit
