Default 02 Sensor $400???? Help

after putting a scanner on my 2000 Honda Civic HX 5 speed, i found the front 02 Sensor is bad, I went to get a replacement at Advance and Autozone and they want $400 ......


i cant pay that, so i bought the universal one and it only came with 4 Wires, whereas my stock 02 sensor has 5 Wires....

What 02 sensor will work for me? where do i get it? what is the part #? i cant afford to pay alot for a new one...

Please Help

I believe the 5 wire O2 sensor is a wideband. It's probably the same kind of thing the VX uses. They're expensive. I'm not aware of any way around it.

^5wire are significantly more expensive...
But yes, oxygensensors.com and sparkplugs.com are really going to be your best bet.
I cannot stress enough that you shouldnt just get a bosch unit from the parts store...they are probably the shittiest thing on the planet

bosch sensors do little more than plug the hole in your exhaust...
