Austin must be thinking of beer to forget to add its good practice to add copper grease to the thread of the new O2 sensor and it will help when you remove it and wont seize.

Pffftft ... no grease needed ... I just used muscles. Not that I really needed to.

It was either a 21 or 22mm spanner I needed as well.

I purchased mine off eBay for $55. Just make sure it is the correct part number on the item before getting it.

probably depends on the exhaust manifolds. dunno where the sensors are on yours, but on the pacies I have it was a 2 minute job each side from the top. I guarantee it would've been MUCH more difficult had I attempted to do it from underneath. BTW I paid $130 for a Bosch one - feeling pretty ripped off about now. didn't think of checking ebay

Considering how cheap you can get them from eBay probably not, unless you could get the NTK ones for a good price.
