got a job with 3 concealed cisterns and back to wall pans (Victoria plumb) rhymes with bum but I hate her more than that anyway got to fit all this bathroom furniture has anyone found a good way to easily fit this concealed stuff got the first toilet in and not leaking only to find seat has to go on before fitting so I will take it out and start again it seems to be the flush pipe is the main culprit it needs to be held steady when the pan is pushed in just for fun its got those floor fixings so I cant just slide it back all ideals greatly appreciated
 
Fix the pan first BB. obs leave enough room for the panel to drop in behind it. Cut a " n " shape in that panel so it drops over the flush pipe when it is in place. You can then fit the cistern and flush pipe easypeasy.

All well and good but some of the naff ones the lower panel dosent come off
 
No way? Well that sucks. Dare I say it I have not seen one of those yet. Wirquin make a flexible flush pipe but I suspect it may be pants.

The Grohe cisterns come with a rubber lined clip that has a bracket back to the wall. Thus fixes the flush pipe in place.
You could make one with a 32mm rubber lined Munson ring.
