Unhappy Escape Catalytic convertor failed

I have 78k miles on 02' Escape. Cylinder 4 and 5 misfires, causing all three cats to fail. It is just outside 75k mile extended plan, and the 8 year 80,000 mile is supposedly void because it is the coils that allegedly, caused them to fail. I owe, $5,000 on it and dealer quotes me $4,600 (among other things unrelated) to fix. Where do I get aftermarket cats? NAPA has the rear/ downstream one and a Y flex-pipe. Where do I get the right manifold convertor and left manifold convertor aftermarket? I need to get it running in order to attempt to trade it in. Or sell it on my own. Any help would appreciated!

$4600 repair estimate? Good heavens, for what? You can get aftermarket cats at any major muffler shop.

Try a Midas, they use Catco or Walker cats and are cheaper than the dealership.
