Agreed.
I recently cracked my radiator, Acura wanted $415 for a new one. Instead I got an aluminum C&R for $230. Which would you choose?

they have oxygen sensor w/ OE connectors for less than a $100. Hope this help.
They also have a lot of DENSO o2 sensors which is OEM for many makes.

Def know what you mean, looking for a 98 rear bumper locally but not getting lucky and the local places do not make an oem replacement. The bumper is like 380 unpainted from my local acura dealer

That how Honda makes their money. In their parts because there's such a mark-up on it.
I remember a couple years back when I asked how much LS meshes would be from the dealer and they quoted me around $400 - $420 per wheel.

hey nice find... I might get one just because my car has 234K miles and I've never replaced my O2 sensor. I don't have any CEL's or anything but surely I would benefit from a new one.

Don't waste your money. Correct me if I'm wrong but there is no middle ground. They are either good or bad.

No, there is a middle groud. A "lazy" O2 sensor will not put out a check engine light but isn't performing the way it is suppose to. There is a tool where you check the voltage on the 02 sensor that tells you wheter or not the voltage is correct.
