Default Bad Knock Sensor '97 Prelude

Just failed emissions for this reason, and I'm wondering what a fair price would be for a mechanic to fix this. Also, how important is it to fix this in a timely manner?

Thanks.

Oh, I didn't realize where it was located. That shouldn't be too difficult for me to replace.

Thanks.

Is there anything special I should know about replacing it, or is it pretty hard to mess this up?

its actually very easy to break. I would recommend taking the oil filter off to give you easier access to it. Be careful tightening it down. if you are using a socket MAKE SURE not to let it slip because it will break the sensor.
