Can anyone tell where is the converter and is there anyway to clean it or can I just cut the damn thing out and weld in a straight pipe. My country doesn't have any emission laws!

Hi I have a 03 corolla t3 3dr and I am looking to source some seats and door panels . I don't live in the UK and I am looking for someone who can ship them. I have tried to find some good seat fabric but had no luck with that. That of course is much cheaper. The interior trim is dark grey but black could work as well. I believe the t sport and compressor seats and door panels can work also, as long as its black or dark grey.
