#1 of 4 1997 Tacoma cat converter in CA by margaret97 May 21, 2009 (3:16 pm)
My catalytic converter was stolen a few days ago. with no damage to sensors. My neighbor says I can use an aftermarket cat. con. to replace it myself, but will need to fabricate some flanges. My mechanic says I must use a true Toyota cat. con. as others are illegal and won't work long term and won't pass smog test. Can anyone tell me what's what with replacing one?
