Default O2 Extension Question?!?!?

I really don't feel like waiting another week without driving my car and all i need now is two 02 extension for my longtube headers

My question is....Could you just cut the 02 sensor wire in between the plug and the actual sensor somewhere on those wires and just add some of the same gauge wire as the sensor to lengthen it or will that cause it to go haywire or something crazy?

It's been done before, probably not the best route to take.

Don't they come with LT's when you buy them? I was going to get a pair of ARH's and I thought they came with.

COJO, it might work in a pinch. I'd only do it if I absolutely had to use my car.

toothdoc, ARHs come with extensions (2 x 24").
