Check the 02 troubleshooting first and if they are bad te best deal is Denso brand on amazon or rock auto

Just grab a Bosch from autozone, don't get the universal one though; any OE type sensor should work though. Check for exhaust leaks in the exhaust manifold before changing because the heater circuit will throw a code with an exhaust leak even if the sensor is still good.

I don't think our Hondas do well on Bosch O2 sensors.

I can't tell what exact code is thrown, but it's the heater element of the secondary O2 sensor. Start by checking whether 7.5A dash fuse 15 is blown.

Plus for the price the Denso's are a no brainer for fit and function

He asked for non-OEM, I suggested a non-OEM.

Ive used a 89 4 cyclinder ford mustang 02 sensor in a civic before from ac delco. You'd have to put the old connector on yourself to make it work however they were like 11 bucks a few years back.

Id check the wiring to the 02's that are there right now, and for exhaust leaks. Ive hit road debris and ripped the harness wiring before and got codes, only to order them and realize it when I go to change them.

I heard non oem are cheaper, which is why I asked. OEM was $100?

It's a 00 "EK" with JDM 1.5 VTEC, some kind of ebay header I assume.

Ok here's a comparison of pricing just for example (2000 Civic EX):

Advance auto parts
Bosche exact fit - 67.49 each
Denso (OEM equivalent) 111 each

Rockauto.com (before shipping and 5% coupon code)
Bosche exact fit 31.89
Denso (OEM equivalent) 31.79 each

Honda OEM (hondaautomotiveparts.com)
$204 each

Rockauto.com for the Denso is the clear choice to go with. Cheapest most quality sensor out there.

Do some troubleshooting. P0141 does not necessarily mean that the O2 sensor is bad.
