You can usually look on aftermarket parts online stores, you can usually get them for about 60-80 bucks, just make sure they pass emissions (USA)

I just got mine replaced Saturday. It was 200 bucks. The guy who did the work told me if I had of driven it too much longer, I would of been on the side of the road. Another guy said it wouldn't hurt to drive it, so I don't know, but he replaced the cat and the oxygen sensor. It was just a local shop, A-1 mufflers. Good luck.

The best aftermarket catalytic I have run across is from techtonic tuning.
From my years of experience dealing with this, combined with that of some veteran smog tech's I have conversed with, aftermarket/inexpensive converters either don't work properly or they fail prematurely. OEM converters are expensive but they work correctly, much more efficiently and they typically last along time.
