2008 Honda Accord
2009 Honda Accord

How at the 11:40 mark did you put the nut on the 4th stud that was not present when you took off the catalytic converter in the engine bay???

[@josephryan9063]

Do you need to buy a new 02 censor when you replace this? Is there anything else you need to buy in addition to a new cat converter? Thanks

Awesome video, thanks for sharing, replacing front and rear cats and O2 sensors with ebay parts to squeeze some life out of the 2010. Why use the anti seize compound? Thanks!
