After checking their website again, it looks like the "universal" sensor, but with the correct connecter already at the end of the wire. I've got a FRANKENSENSOR!

Looks like I'll be calling these guys tomorrow to see what's going on.

Maybe it's all fine, but since I paid for the OEM replacement, I want to make sure that they sent the right one.

I saved at least 100$ over what the Ford Dealer wanted for a 95 Probe 02 Sensor.

I contacted the vendor today. Apparently the picture on the website picture is out of date. I'll give it a try this weekend as planned.

I got the same answer from the vendor too, out of date picture and supposedly it is still a walker sensor. I'll try it too and see what happens.

Well I didn't need mine (passed smog just fine with the old sensor), but I did verify that the connecting wire is long enough, and the connector plug is correct. I guess that I have a spare for one of those days when I get up and decide that it's a beautiful day to change an oxygen sensor...

well, i have the sensor and took a pic of it next to the old stock one, let me know if anyone wants to see the pic...

it looks like standard quality and the tech guy said if i had any probs he would refund me completely, it came with a stock connector and even a heat sheild on the wire, also a small tube of antiseeze.... not a bad deal...but I'll be totaly convinced one it is running on my car with no issues.

got it on, but not running yet

well, i have it on my downpipe and got my dp back on my car (with shiny new gaskets..hehehe)

it looks like a good quality unit, here are some notes:

- came with a small tube of copper color anti-seize
- came with 'stock-like' wire heat sheild
- came with the stock wire connector

but I have not recieved my uim (and other) parts back from TTT yet, so I can't get the car going, but the parts should be here soon.... I'll keep the this thread posted on the results...

here is a pic of it on my DP (jethot 2000 coated, blue)
