Default Lambda Hole Bung?

What can I use to bung up the lambda hole in the new de-cat down pipe I bought?

is there a specific bung available? was thinkin i might be able to find a spark plug to fit it and chop of the top of it, lol.

Or has anyone got a duff lambda sensor they dont want?

I was going to use the exhaust cat on fire sensor but that looks well to small to fit in the lambda hole.

Just shove in anything that has the same thread size. A Bolt, spark plug, old sensor, whatever takes your fancy.

I thought all Lamda probes had a standard thread of M16 x 1.5 not M18.

I've just swapped my standard downpipe for a decat bought second hand. The lamda boss had a stripped thread, I ran an M16 x1.5 tap down it to fit the standard lamda back into it.
