Default Extending o2 sensor wires

What is the best way to extend the wires on an o2 sensor?

I cut the ends off of the wire and inside is a ton of shielding with what looks like only 1 conductive wire. The wires just arent long enough to reach from my bung on my exhaust manifold to the plug.

or you could take your harness all apart and run longer wires....but if you did that id have to bounce my hand off your face a couple times. im not sure exactly how else besides splicing in wires you might have thought would be easier.

its real easy man.... i did it to my oil pressure sender (granted.. less wires) but all you do is cut one, extend one... cut one, extend one........ Use solder if you want a nice connection.

I ended up using non-solder aircraft strength connections (my buddy works tech at Delta). I haven't hooked it up yet because I'm at work, but that should be the last thing to get my car running correctly.

btw- What things will make a car run in "limp mode"? Knock sensor and o2 sensor are the only things I know of.
