Default Real quick question for my O2 sensor

Ok so i bought new greddy headers from this guy and they had like 100 miles on them for my 00 civic si and he said the o2 sensor was for my car but it wasn't so i put the headers on and latter found out the o2 sensor is for a 95 civic and i don't want to take the headers off again and i tried getting the 02 sensor out but it would budge becuase i want to put my stock one back in. Any one have any suggestions or tips on something to loosen the o2 sensor so i can get my stock one back in anythign will help
thanx

Just take the HEADER (singular) off and take off the o2 that way. It's really not that hard. 9 nuts on the head and 2 on the cat.

Get a O2 sensor socket from Advanced Auto and use that. Any kind of anti-seize may help too. When I reinstalled mine I used some Ti ani-seize so I could get it out later on in its life.

With mine I couldnt get a wrench on it till I used a pinout tool and removed the clip so I could get the box end over it. Other wise it kept wanting to strip using the open end
