Default Best place to buy a Lambda sensor?

Where is the best place online to buy a lambda sensor and is it worth buying a official product or a cheaper replacement at half the price?? I have been quoted £138 for a subaru one and found that Aztec Performance sell some for under 60quid

What car is it for, the newage uses a pseudo wideband jobby and the ECU tends to throw a hissy fit if an alternative one is used...

Hi mate,

Our ones work very well, do the same job as OEM and last.

Buy some beer or more car goodies with the money you save

The JECS ECU is quite happy with a non-subaru lambda

is your sensor a straight forward direct replacement or has the connectors got to be switched about?
