BOSCH #13111 O2 FRONT 'VETTE ...Long wires..no need for extensions...much wider heat range= no codes. [You will get many others directing you to go this route]

The Bosch 13111's were $59.99 a piece at the local Murrays store. But I waited till they had a 10% off coupon. $54 bucks a piece. Best route you can go. Maybe be more expensive than stockers, but it's worth it.

like i said..you will not need them..the 13111's have looong enough wires..do what u want with those other extensions you have..you can sell them or whatever. **** o2's come with 1 o2 sensor and 1 wire attached to a plug on them...****

ok so wait the BOSCH 13111 show up as corvette REARS but just wanted to make sure will they work well as FRONT replacements on fbodies???? are they all the same sensor?? or does the only thing that change is the length and style of the plug itself (b/c the front corvette 02 plugs are different when i went to see them at Autozone)(they arent a square 4 pin plug like the 2x2 one i currently have, its more like a straight inline (1x4) pin plug) hope u understand what i mean just wanna make sure they'll work as good or better than the "stock replacement" stuff that shows up on the autozone/discount computers
