I installed all 4 sensors last week using posilock connectors PL1824 and they seem to be working, however my post-catalytic converter o2 sensor for the left side is faulty. I'm returning it for a replacement. They are very simple to install using the connectors and you don't even have to take apart any pieces underneath the car to access any of them. You just need a 22mm open end wrench and you're good to go. Also, I found out you have to push on the piece sticking out inward towards the sensor. It was hard getting them off at first but it eventually came out.

Furthermore, I would definitely recommend this procedure since it is very simple and cheap. I spent a total of $115 for all 4 sensors at partstrain.com with a coupon code and even still it would only have been $125 without it. Thanks for the help.
