English term or phrase: direct fit catalytic converters
This is a company letter of introduction to prospective clients:
XXX has been trading since 1973 in the UK and we are now the largest supplier of direct catalytic converters in the UK aftermarket. We manufacture over 2000 catalytic converters which we supply with fitting kits.

If it were talking about "Nachrüst-Katalysatoren", would that not be "retro" fit, rather than direct fit? I translated "fitting kits" as Montagesets, but am not sure anymore...

This is a RUSH, so any quick help is appreciated.

Thanks

agree  Bernd Runge: ohne "direct fit"

  -> Danke .. ich dachte an Handelsmarke eventuell
agree  Steffen Walter: Mit Bernd - "einbaufertig" entspricht bereits "direct fit", deshalb ist die Hinzufügung des englischen Begriffs unnötig. / Dann wäre "direct fit" aber vermutlich groß geschrieben worden.

agree  Rolf Kern: Ohne "direct fit", da anzunehmen ist, dass mit XXX nicht eine Firma namens "Direct Fit" gemeint ist.
