Update.

I received this part no issues and fast from amazon (GAS is the reseller). Although it is the wrong part. Even Amazon says it's the right part. Along with O'Reilly and AutoZone and Summitracing. The only people who seemed to know was NAPA when I went in there yesterday. My upstream O2 is a 5-wire. This 16121 is a 4-wire. The connector is a bit different.


Looks like I need the Bosch 17085

So if you really want to know, go to NAPA. I'm seeing what I can do in exchange from GAS now.

Actually, getting up in there and seeing all of this, the O2 looks like it's pretty easy to replace. I just bought the O2 sensor tool because it was only $10. A decent 22mm wrench is close to that anyways.

Just an update. Michael from germanautosupply.com was awesome. He said sorry, even though it's amazons fault and he also took care of me directly. The part needed was more costly, but he took care of that too and we just exchanged. Great service and they know what they are doing.

Also asked what part numbers needed for other things and he helped me out.

Oh my god they did the exchange! How can they do that?!
