Air/Fuel Sensor: easy way to save $350

My '99 Cali emissions was throwing codes. It was its way of asking for a new fuel/air sensor.

So I go down the the local stealership; they inform me that a new fuel/air sensor is $285 and another $150 for the install. I asked the parts guy for the Toyota part number, when I got home I crossed referenced it to the Denso part number since Denso makes the part for Toyota.

Amazon.com had the Denso sensor p/n 234-9002 for $105.....nice.

I took me 15 minutes to turn two nuts and connect a plug to install it.

No more codes.

Exactly why I have not had someone else work on my cars in years. Also why I price check everything and order most things online.
