I got my complete 99+ upgrade from gmperformanceparts.com for like 100 bucks shipped. That was for the 2 sensors and the harness. There's a few ways to do it, I pulled the fuel rails and then the intake, search around and you can find a few different ways to do it and pick whichever you like the best. It's pretty easy.

Ugh I spent like an hour searching for the correct PN . They've changed it like 3 times and you need the current one for GM parts direct. Best thing I can tell you is either do a search on here for "knock sensor upgrade" or something on here and google. If you can't come up with something that way see if either SDPC can hook you up or give Egay a whirl.
