thats the universal one. unless your good at wiring and reading wiring diagrams, buy the OEM one, its a no brainer.

if you get a used one make sure it is in alright shape. but if you can afford it a new one might be the way to go. good luck.

Borrow a "known-good" o2 sensor from a friend to pass smog if you're low on funds, then go and get the universal one from Autozone to run for awhile. If you don't want to go through the hassle, just get a new one. You'll save time & not to mention gas from the newly replaced sensor. I personally wouldn't run Autozone o2 sensors...
