Review: Perfect fit - This catalytic converter matched up perfectly. Would recommend this as a replacement, also how unbelievably cheaper it was to buy from desertcart, then any of the stores locally.
Review: Passed emissions - Check engine light came back on 2 weeks after replacing the old one. So I’ll still have to buy another part smh. The fit was perfect but the part was defective next time I’ll just pay full price instead of trying to go the cheap route
