Default Do I need extensions for the front o2's on jet hots?

I asked the guy taking my order at Lm if I needed the extensions and he said I didnt. But I just read some post saying to get them. So do I need to call back and order some?
TIA, justin

Does any body have these installed that can let me know? My car is a daily driver and it would suck not to be able to drive it for a week while I'm waiting on extensions.

Thanks guys, I guess I'll call back and order some. I could always just send em back. You would think the staff at Lm would know what they were talking about? Guess not. Hey LM I just got fired if you need some real help!!

OK, I got the skinny on the extensions. Called JET HOT up today to ask a few questions. The JET HOT's do have a relocated front O2 bung. I belive they moved them to the inside.(hookers are on the out side)I was told that the stock plugs were long enough to reach, but only if they are rerouted through the harness and engine bay. They said that it would make life a whole lot easier just to buy the extensions. So if you really don't want the spend the extra money you should be able to get buy. I just ordered the extensions, I don't want to have to fool with that right after doing my first header install.

Well just to mention another option, if you know how to solder and apply shrink tubing you could just splice in some more wire then you don't have to buy the extensions. I wouldn't use crimp splices for this, but I'm sure many people do.
