I got mine at Knecht's... not sure if they're a nation-wide chain.

Get one from a late 90s Mustang GT and then just match and crimp the wire colors. I think mine was like $40 for a Bosch one.

Where did you buy yours?

I have the universal at 60 and the real deal at 73

Hmm so it's plug and play with the right connector? Sweet.

Same situation 1 week ago - i actually just passed shitty california smog today.

Got mine off a private seller on Amazon for 60 bucks, talking about the bosch 13045 (?) direct fit sensor. Cheapest on the major retailers I could fine was 110 from Autohausaz... this guy on amazon has for 60 + 5 shipped. I received it super fast from Washington too. Great seller, i think his store name is bar mac auto group.

He also has a webpage at www.oxygensensor.net. Yes, it looks ghetto but I had a great experience buying from him.

Blunt.

A universal Bosch O2 is ~$40 from amazon, an O2 sensor with the BMW connector is ~$110
All you have to do is crimp on the BMW connector and you have a working O2 sensor.

Some will argue that the universal sensors don't read the same but that is another story.

Look in the FAQ/DIY section for the thread with the part number.

I've actually bought several things for my e30 from them and have been very satisfied with every purchase. For the most part, they are pretty cheap and stock oem stuff. This is where I have actually bought my O2 sensor from, along with varies interior trim pieces.... and a Bosch bypass valve for a 993 just this past week.

+1 Tim is a really nice guy to deal with.

How do I tell if mine is 540mm or 640 mm?

Napa $40

Last time I checked Rockauto was pretty cheap

[Nic01101011]

The universal one shouldn't be much cheaper than the specific one, might as well just get the right one.
