Inspection sticker needed!!!!

[TexasSnake]

If anyone in the Houston area knows how I can get an inspection sticker for my car please shoot me a PM. My car won't pass emissions test (OBD II computer) due to my cat deletes. It fails 3 categories (O2 sensors, EVAP system, and Catylist). I've been to 3 places that could "so called" hook people up for some change in the tip jug without success.

P.S. I'm not looking for solutions such as reinstalling cats or installing high flow cats. I love the sound and the ability to shoot flames at opponents.

Thanks,

Get o2 sims

I thought these would only turn the check engine light off.

1) How do these work
2) How much do they cost?
3) Where do you get them?
4) How difficult are they to install?
5) Are you sure they will allow my car to pass the emissions test I am referring to?

Thanks...

I have them on my car it cleared the check engine light and made it so i could past emissions. They are easy to install they just plug in and zip tie the wires down. I got mine from Belanger for 150 they are local for me.

Where do they plug in? Do you splice them to the original O2 sensor wires and plug them into the exhaust like the original ones? If so, I would think I would now have to drill holes in the exhaust to install them.

Thanks

No drilling no splicing they just plug in. I will try to take a pic of mine and post it in the morning.

Just cruise over to San Antonio -- no emissions test. Where I go they usually don't even drive my cars.

I think about any small town 50 miles or so outside Houston will do it with no emissions testing.
