On the lx and dx models both oxygen sensors are at the front of the engine under the distributor.

On an lx/dx with an ex header you can open up the wire loom and pull back the plug for the rear oxygen sensor so that the plug goes back basically to the thermostat housing and then the rear oxygen sensor harness can reach the plug from the engine harness

Check underneath the shifter. That's where most downstream O2 sensor wires are entered into the cabin.

It's a 4P connector. Identify it by the wire colors.

This is only true on the EX and Si models. All other models have BOTH O2 sensor plugs up front near the exhaust manifold.

Both are on the up front as said, you'll see the primary when you pop the hood and look right by the exhaust outlet of the head, primary is a bit further down as you follow along the exhaust.

You can buy an extension harness, very simple plug and play.
