Labor should be nothing... unless you want to charge yourself. Parts... universal sensors are supposed to work fine, so not too much.

labor depends on how old the sensor and downpipe are. mine was so rusted in there a guy charged me an hours worth of labor (at 30 bucks an hour ) because he had to torch the downpipe while cranking the sensor out.

i'd say 70 bucks at most.

where the hell did you go that charges 30 an hour for labor? most shops charge at least 60.

Well the thing was, my o2 snesor went out and it was infact a DIY job. I could have done it alone, but i literally had no tools. I took it to a mechanic and he took 10-20 mins to install the new part. I guess he charged me for a half an hour becuase it wasn't a full hours job. I don't know, but i was charged 30 bucks. Waste of money IMO, just had no tools. Or maybe I should rephrase my answe to: "You can possibly pay $30 if you find the right shop, but expect to pay $60 because its what most shops charge for an hour of work."
