Where does everyone buy replacements? Replacements for O2 sensors that is. I assume with all the modded cars on this website many must have experience with burning them out? My car only had 70,000 miles on it when I just did the longtube switch and my sensors are toast. At least thats what my car tells me, P0135, P0155, P1133, P1153. SO where do I buy them? I'd assume buying from GM would be insanely expensive? Anyone with experience please respond.

If you have LT's buy bosch part number 13111's that will eliminate the need for extensions, and you can get those at any local parts store, I know advanced auto stocks them as well as many other places im sure

These are rear vette 02's...with a wider heat range..1-1/4 years with them...great.

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 could just go to a parts store tell them u need replacements for your 02 sensors and they will give you stock length sensors, but they will probally be just as much as the longer ones, you could always try and sell the extensions too

I got universal Borg Warners from work the other day, came out to like $50 with my discount. They were easy to wire up to the factory connectors, took less than 10 minutes from start to finish on everything. I put two coats of anti-heat stuff around them, so they won't "accidently" get melted like my old ones

Personally I would try gmpartsdirect, that's probably the cheapest you'll find.
