Question rp supercat install hiccup

So yesterday my supercat came in, and today i decided to put it on since my old cat failed
on me.

I was able to take the original one off no problem, but when I accidentally hit the exhaust with my hand I heard a rattling noise inside it, like small bolts inside of it.

anyways here's a video of it.

anyway to get rid of this or clean it out? i tried taking that piece of pipe off to see if its maybe in there but i cant get those nuts loose without braking them, and its something id rather not do.

any help is appreciated.

and also am I missing something here, these are the bolts i got with the rp supercat.
the ones that hold the back end where the tension spring is seem to be missing the nut. or am i wrong?

those grey things are what came from inside your broken cat. it can clog up your exhaust. rp supercat can be purchased at RX7.com . i have one but it didnt pass emissions , so might as well purchase a mid pipe, unless mine just came out defective but i wouldnt trust it passing.
