Unhappy Stolen Catalytic Converter

I had a flat tire & left my car on the hwy [bad mistake i know...] and the next morning i changed the tire & started my car & it sounded very loud. I talked to my dad and he noticed that there was something hanging from my car and informed me that my catalytic converter was missing and that someone more than likely stole it... I've looked on the internet for catalytic converters and i found alot, HOWEVER can i use just ANY one that i find? Or is it a specific one that i need. I have a 2007 Hyundai Accent HB.... please help!

Did they unbolt it or saw the pipe at each end..

The secondary they stole bolts in, mounts between the front and center pipes, so if they cut them, you going to need pipes also

There is 2 cats shown, FEDERAL & CA, both are $548 each, parts fella can verify application with VIN entered to MICROCAT. Add for gaskets and pipes if needed.

The primary cat is located on the exhaust manifold..
