Update guys...as you saw from my other post, there's no more teg.
sucks.
On the other hand, carsound is really easy going and I called them up about the cat. The guy told me to bring the car to a local shop that carries the cat, and get it replaced there. No charge, but if the shop gives any problems, just to put it on a credit card and be reimbursed when the shop sends the cat to carsound for inspection.
Real simple. I didn't get a chance to do it though since my teg was stolen today. But that's a different freaking story.
Thanks for all your help though. Very helpful.
