I bought one,took it to my local muffler shop to get it put in and it was the wrong one but he said you could basically take it out and it won't affect the car.
proves some muffler shops are so dumb... nothing more than a congregation of unqualified weldersQuote:

it's cheap, i reckon it should be changed once a year
For my car in particular ( accord 91)... apparently according to another forum i visit, although there are other o2 sensors made for my car by bosch.... apparently it will also trigger a code if i use aftermarket, soo in my case i have to use OEM denso made...
In most situations OEM is best =D
well what Beeza posted up are "OEM replacements" with the correct plug and number of wires for the sensor to function correctly for the specific application.Quote:

the reason "aftermarket" ones usually don't work is coz their classified as 'universal' without even the correct number of wires. for example people buying the unheated single wire ones for a honda is just a mad no-no.. will definitely give a code
if you don't know who to trust read my sig... learn for yourself and find your own answers :)
got one for $100 a 4 wire one also for the b16
