to answer your question, Bosal (and others) make specific/direct fit for $300+/- that anyone can do with some time, hand tools, and maybe some swearing..
a universal (MagnaFlow and others)will probably run about $148-200. and it can be found at amazon, autozone, etc., and can be welded, or sleeved and bolted in, and then you might be up to almost the cost of the OEM fit one..
regardless, prior to any high dollar purchases, you might just run some premium fuel through, and if not using synthetic oil, do the oil change, and see if light keeps returning.. more info please!.. difficult to diagnose w/o data.. how many miles on the car/cat?? it might be converter; just hate for you to buy and swap what might not be necessary..

upstream O2 just last week due to code; CEL back mechanic says now it is the cat on the manifold. looks like original cat. EGR replaced 8 months ago or so due to that code. new plugs, wires last year. 184,000 miles on the car.
mechanic is reputable, does all the import repairs in town. Sticker under hood indicates this is a Fed.Emissions Car.
