To verify fitment, check the vehicle's engine model (2.0i 16V 3SFE) and year of manufacture (1994-1999). Confirm the OEM part number and compare it with the converter reference. Providing your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to the supplier can confirm exact compatibility.

Always ensure you purchase catalytic converters with proper E-mark certification for legal compliance and quality assurance.

The catalytic converter should be installed by a professional garage or qualified technician to ensure correct fit and function. Important points include:

• The vehicle must run on unleaded petrol only.
• The Lambda sensor should be replaced concurrently with the catalytic converter replacement, generally after 80,000 to 100,000 km.
• Installation must use proper exhaust system connections, preferably copper for any front connectors.
• The converter must be suitable for the engine displacement and calibrated for the 2.0 3SFE engine emissions.

Following manufacturer installation guidelines is crucial to maintain vehicle performance and warranty conditions.

Quality catalytic converters for the Toyota Fun Cruiser can be purchased through reputable European automotive parts suppliers who offer OEM matching parts and E-mark certified products. Options include:

• European specialist websites offering direct-from-factory stainless steel catalytic converters compliant with EU standards.
• Online stores with stock for Toyota OEM part numbers and quality aftermarket equivalents.
• Professional workshops and authorized distributors with catalog access and expert technical support.

Look for warranties, customer support, and shipping options such as express delivery or in-store pickup to fit your needs.

High-quality catalytic converters typically come with a 3-year warranty, limited to a maximum mileage of 100,000 km. The warranty covers manufacturing defects but requires proper installation and maintenance, including:
