A competent muffler shop will cut it out, and weld in a replacement unit. Expect to pay approximately 400 to 500 USD. Don't let the dealer do this. They will charge at least double.

His mama. Traded y0 mama in because she was squeaking.
Secondary cats won't work as primary cats.
Here's a picture of the catalytic converters. They are the big bulging things on the exhaust.
The wires going into them are the rear O2 sensors. You will have a similar set of wires in front of the cats as well.
The picture is from a V6 Kompressor, if you have a 4 banger, the cat looks similar, but chances are you'll only have one primary kitty.
