    Default How much are my catylitic converters worth?

    I have my stock cats from my 09 sitting in my garage. I know that the materials can be worth quite a bit. How much can I expect for these things for scrap?

    For both? Did you take them somewhere like a scrap place or do the craigslist/Ebay thing?

    For both and local. It was quick and easy, so I was not picky on price.
