Hi,
I am in need of a new catalytic converter. I could buy an genuine cat, but it would cost me a lot.
A local shop offered me a aftermarket (non-original) spare cat for considerably less, but I am not sure it will fit my 1.6.
What I know to be true is that the Ford OEM number of the 1.6's cat is 1S615E211CC, and that it is different from the cats in the 1.4 and 1.7.
The original cat looks like this:

The local shop suggested the following cat (HJS 96154050): https://www.ebay.at/itm/HJS-bluemis...6-16V-Sport-/253162309797?hash=item3af1a648a5.
According to this page, it should fit: https://cars245.com/en/item/ford-1S615E211CC-pipe-and-catalyst-front/
However, it is clear that the middle fastening plate is different from the original (turned 90 degrees), making me doubt the fitting.
Can anyone please tell me whether this cat will fit my 1.6, or point me in the right direction?
Thank you very much,
Apex
