Bus Depot lists the Bosch 13913 for $55- looks like it has only a short section of wire and you'd splice it to your old wiring. 

 

They also list Bosch 15275 for $60, and that one includes a splice kit. 

 

Searching Google or each Bosch part number shows a price of $46 for the one with the splice kit on eBay with free shipping.

 

The last time I needed in O2 sensor, I was away from home and had to get one from NAPA (it was the single wire one) and it was only about a dollar more than the cheapest price I found online.

 

Good Luck,

Ed Duntz
