Default Suspension and Cat Bolt Help

Hey wondering if these are sway bar end links? i have just noticed they broke off and been driving the car for a while and nothing has happened. Wondering if i should replace with oem ones or aftermarket? Need the part number

Also what are the spring bolts for the catalytic converter? mines were replaced with regular one because i had to change them due to rustiness. Would i have to put the oem ones back right away or will it last with none spring bolts. Would getting a test pipe solve this i have an Hks dual exhaust freshly installed.

those are sway bar end links yes, and using a regular bolt will eventually break i know because i tried this. anyways you can get some on ebay for like 5 bucks each for the bolt and spring or from the dealer your looking at like 15 bucks

That's up to you man, you can get oem ones for about 40 bucks ebay ones are probably half that maybe 30. if your on a tight budget go for it but if not they are fairly inexpensive to just get oem
