may not be direct fit but try jegs, summit, and Ebaymotors
and keep your old one if you still got it, take it to a recycle center, down here you can get $40-$80 in scrap from one

Re: WTB LO3 catalytic converter
that my be harder since the scrap value is so high j/y's dont sell them and most people who take them off now take them to the scrap yard
is your inspection visual or do they hook a probe to the exhaust??
if its just visual find you any cat and hallow it out

Re: WTB LO3 catalytic converter
Right now i have a gutted one on there but they sniffer my car so thats not cool. The thing is recently that past 2 months the price of cats have dropped severely because i am a mechanic and we do sell bad ones that used to go for over 100 to now 40ish maybe if that. multiple places have agreed on the pricing its dropped off nobody is paying the top dollar anymore for cats so i cant justify paying much for one.
