I need a new cat for my car and due to the age of my car i have been advised I can have a non approved cat fitted.
Has anyone had one fitted before and where did you get one as I need one in my hands by 14th Jan as my current is damaged and I need my car to go to london.
Thanks in advance

They don't last very long and throw up faults with the Lambda sensors some times.
You are better off with a second hand genuine one than a new non-approved one.

Thanks for the heads up guys, i'll just get a new one as i don't have time to run about searching for a cat that will work 100%.
