OBX front o2 sensor?
I'm not completely sure my o2 is bad, but I found this:

Is this OBX o2 sensor actually any good?... The genuine Honda o2 is around a couple hundred bucks and these guys are selling one for $44 shipped...

A couple more bucks can net you an "NTK" oxygen sensor, one of the OEM suppliers from Honda. Comes with pigtail/harness and all.
OBX is typically considered the "aftermarket laughing stock", just as a warning. Just be sure before buying.

I suspect it's one of the cheap(est?) parts store replacement sensors, just repackaged. It would probably be cheaper for OBX to buy their sensors from someplace like Standard Motor Products or other low-buck supplier rather than for them to tool up for thier own parts run.

It's actually cheaper than a cheap part shore replacement sensor.. The cheapest one autozone had was $75 for a Bosch universal sensor which = [racial pejorative]riggin'. They are selling this thing for $35 and it's plug and play. I don't really understand this one, but at this cost it would actually be cheaper to just put a new one of these in every year for the next 10 years then buy an OEM honda o2 sensor now that lasts 10 years... Sounds a little too cheap to correct, makes me wonder if the thing will work at all.
