Catalytic Converter Bolts ?
Hello all, I've searched and searched, but have been unable to get any information regarding the size/length/pitch of bolts that connect the cat to the exhaust. Anyone know?
Thanks,

Sounds like a plug for Sewell . I don't dispute that they are inexpensive, its just more about convenience when I can go down to the local hardware store to pick up a few bolts than having to deal with internet purchases and shipping. And I already have the gaskets. I'll use Sewell for other purchases as they appear to be very comprehensive and thorough for Lexus parts.
So, anyone know the diameter at least? If not, I guess I'll just pull them off this weekend, get the specs, and provide the information to others who may want to do this.

The nuts on the rear joint of the converter want a 13mm socket. The nuts on the front joint want a 14mm socket. So an M8 bolt should be fine for the rear, M10 should be fine for the front.
Other members may want to put on additional information.
