Catalytic converter

Hi guys, thinking of getting one of these from the us, any coments, or other people interested.


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=009&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=190042144791&rd=1,1 />

Seem very cheap - hope there's no catch? If you do go ahead and buy, let us know how you get on as I'll be wanting one of these at some stage.

Click on the hyperlink button thenwrite the name you want to see in the popup box and ok it, then in the next popup box paste your link in. Make sure you get rid of the http//: that is already in there or it will not work. Rescued attachment prtscrn.jpg

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I've had a look at that sellers items, but he doesn't show anything as pretty, they've all got heat shields.

Chris, i wasn't sure if it would be big enough on its own, so could put two inline, or do a similar thing to someone else and cut up another not very good looking item and insert it in the end of the can, hassle i know but i can keep it for mot's after too.

On Board Diagnostic

All new car have to have an OBD2 compliant port somewhere on them within a certain distance of they drivers seat. Certain bit of info are mandatory to be output from them. It will be where the dealer plugs in their diagnostic computer.

Well that makes a bit more sense now. Having said that it doesn't really affect me so i'll ignore that bit. Thanks anyway.
