I had bought a 'back to the wall' toilet, I feel quite confident, apart from the waste, I think I will need a flexi pipe? the soil pipe I am connecting comes up through the floor and measures 5" diameter. What is the product I need?

Thanks!
 
Is the existing soil pipe plastic or cast?,if cast ,is it a collar that is 5'' ?,picture maybe good

It's plastic, it looks like whoever put the last toilet in has filled the gap?
 
i think you may struggle to get it flush to the wall

It'll be a challenge, it's hard to say exactly how without having it infront of me, if the toilet unit is deep enough I'd probably use a straight flexi multiquik If not then possibly a long bent one like you have and then use a short straight one as well to push into the bent. (this works) but like I say, it's pretty hard to advise without having it in front of me, you'll probably have to break the collar off too, carefully and ensuring none falls back down the waste itself.
