CLK430 Cat Converter
I have a 2002 CLK 430 and I just recently found out my cat converter on my drivers side has gone bad. Was wanting to know if anyone had an extra one for sale or knew were I could get a replacement or aftermarket at a decent price thanks.

99CLK320,
When one cat goes the other is usually right behind it so you should replace both. Are you talking about the primary or the secondary cats? The secondaries you can live without unless you live in CA. Replace them with an X pipe to equalize pressure(some say) or go directly into the resonator The primaries, I would go with with OEM or, if you like, go with a universal 200cell metallic substrate cat for more flow through. You wil have to find a GOOD muffler shop to weld them in.
