Default Changing o2 sensor on b18b1, help!

My engine check light came on recently and i did a CEL today and got the ever so popular code 41 for the oxygen sensor. My question is, how difficult is it to install a new o2 sensor, and is there a how-to that i could look up on this. Thanks, i tried a search but couldn't come accross specifically what i was looking for.

not hard at all just get the right socket for it it has a area taken out so the wire can get through. then you plug it in.

You don't really 'need' that special socket, at least I did not. I just took off the heat shield from the manifold (2 bolts), put a box-end wrench on that thing and gave it a turn. Broke loose just fine. Just make sure to apply some anti-sieze to the O2 threads before you re-install.

Not hard at all, we change them every time we tune Hondata systems. You can get the specific socket mentioned previously, but a box end does work too. Those sockets can be tricky to get around the shift linkage. If you do replace your old sensor, would you please sell me your bad one?? I need it for the wires and connector.
