Tip Of The Week

Be aware of catalytic convertor theft

  • Get your Catalytic Converter etched with your vehicle license plate number. 
  • Have extra metal welded to your exhaust system
    • Muffler shops are offering creative ways to protect your Catalytic Converter. They weld on metal to make it difficult for the Catalytic Converter to be removed. The cost is often less than your insurance deductable and definitely less than the full replacement cost (if you don’t have comprehensive insurance).
  • Install a Catalytic Converter Protection Device
    • There are devices on the market that will clamp/go around your Catalytic Converter. Devices are often more expensive than welding extra metal, but for some this is the option they prefer.
