Catalytic converter replacement for 1992 Civic VX

Does anyone know where I can get a new catalytic converter for my stock 1992 Honda Civic VX hatchback? I'm looking for something that will be a direct bolt-on fit.

If not, then maybe recommend an aftermarket replacement that my local muffler and exhaust shop can install?

Thanks!

Welcome. Here in the UK, any local muffler and exhaust shop would get a cat within a few hours, a day at the most. Have you asked them?

The shop might charge more for the part.

All the local Motor Factors carry the common ones and can usually get those they don't stock within a few hours. When I was a delivery driver for a local concern I was always delivering cats to the exhaust specialists and local garages.
My Jazz was in for an exhaust repair at a local garage and I decided to replace the cat. I phoned my branch and it was delivered 10 minutes later. Better than Deliveroo!

That was fast! My friend took his '98 Ranger for the installation of the new brake pads and toyo tires plus the alignment. The mechanic recommended changing the catalytic converter. Took another day to get the new cat.
