O2 Sensor

[striker]

The other day I went to Napa Auto and looked into geting a new O2 sensor. The guy there told me they cost $400 dollars for the front and $150 for the back. Does anyone know where I can get one cheaper?

I think bosch makes one for cheaper. look around the web.

You can get universal O2 sensors, but you'll have to cut the harness off your old O2 and solder it to the new one. They are NOT $400.

Yeah they're expensive for what they are, but 400 is too much.

It is a rip-off, but you are pretty much screwed. There are challenges with getting any component of an emissions control system from a salvage yard. Most won't sell emissions control components because it is illegal.

I just bought a replacement engine for my 96 HX (VTEC-e). It came with with both O2 sensors (primary and secondary).

I had to pay $400 dollars for the aftermarket Bosch primary sensor a couple of years back. I found out that it wasn't any more expensive for the OEM Honda part with my 20% discount.

Sometimes life just isn't fair...

its not illegal to sell emission control components. i buy them all the time. the only thing thats illegal to sell used that i know of is catalytic converters.
