Hmm...its just I've read argument over the quality of those and I went through HELL trying to get extensions (which would all be a waste if I got Bosch). So I'm not completely throwing out that idea, but I'd like to know where people get their stock replacements.
I'm afraid everyone is missing the point....I have already paid roughly $65 for O2 extensions and now you are saying I should just buy the Bosch and throw away that money. I DO NOT want to do that, so if anyone has experience with buying normal, stock replacements please let me know.
You went through hell to get O2 extensions...... and paid $65? Did you need 4 of them? Personally I would just delete the rears, so you shouldn't need more than 2.
You can get those from Speed Inc for $18. So what was the issue there? $18 x 2 = $36 + a simple on-line order. Why was it so hard to get them?

Wow, this thread is WAY back from the dead....funny memories.
RPM WS6: The whole hell process if I recall correctly is that I did indeed pay the $36 for the two from WS6 Store, but unfortunately a higher power had a funny sense of humor. One was lost in a torrential downpour and run over multiple times by the time I found it. Then being the genius I am, I ordered from a different sponsor here in hopes of getting the replacement sooner because they're location was in FL. Well, didn't work that way. Turns out their parts do not come from FL at all and not to mention the fact I paid the same amount that I paid for two that I paid for the single replacement. So, I felt pretty screwed by that and needless to say, I now have the utmost respect for WS6 Store, great sponsor, and wouldn't use anyone else unless I had to. They shipped out the original two very quickly and were relatively cheap, the other sponsor I'll leave unnamed.
Y2K_TA: My car actually never threw codes for the rear O2s after my longtube header install with ORY......I honestly have no idea why but there is definitely just normal, stock, O2 sensors in the rear. I've pulled them out and looked.
