Asking because, the cat that I ordered the other day came in early, spent all day messing with it, and the piece was an inch too long. Imagine that...

I just need to replace it all at once and do your idea.
You just pick 2 of those up cut out your old cats and weld in those new ones with some extra pipe leave an o2 before and after it and you'll be set I'm not sure if you can buy a kit that's just unbolt the old and bolt the new back up honestly though I'd just order 2 of those and take them to an exhaust shop and have them do it for you so you don't have to mess with it

Nothing in this world would make me happier than to "not have to mess with it" haha. There have been many moons in my life where i would much rather have hired an expert, but couldnt foot the bill. Haven't been to the doctor in 18 years for the same reason. No insurance.

Thats why we join web forums and hope for the best lol

It wouldn't hurt to call around and ask $309 for the factory replacement vs $200 for the new cats you're already $100 cheaper then just that one part the shop may only charge $100 and it'd all be done instead of only having one side bought then still having to do it yourself and buying the other side

The videos might go together; her poor driving caused her to crash by design and then when she realized she was lousy at flipping her hair, she hung herself or maybe she realized her singing was bad:
