best/cheapest place to get 02 sensors...

Hi boys, it seems that one of my 02 sensors has gone bad, or so my CEL tells me. I want to replace all 3 of them and be done with it. I have a 99 Cali spec. My Nissan mechanic tells me to get Nissan OEM only! No aftermarket! I wouldn't anyway. I'm thinking either Pinnacle or Courtesy. Has anyone else bought these 02 sensors anywhere else? I understand they're very expensive, but what part isn't on these cars especially if you buy Nissan parts only. Links would help.
Thanks

the bosch o2 sensors from oxygensensors.com are the same sensor that is the nissan factory one. only difference if you bought at the dealer the box says nissan and the oxygensensors.com box says bosch. the sensor itself is identical.also if yours is a cali spec it has 4 o2 sensors not 3

Na, don't ever buy Bosch anything. Get their Walker or Denso, I got them for my '96 Max and they worked fine... just picked them up for my '96 I30t too.

Walker $63/ea + shipping
Denso $64/ea + shipping

OEM plugs no splicing.

I ordered two fBosch OEM o2 sensors from advanceautoparts.com last week, and put them in this morning. I went with Bosch because I'd never heard of Walker or Denso...

The price for the two Boschs shipped to Chicago were cheaper at Advance than at oxygensensors.com

Call Dave Burnette at South Point Nissan in Austin, TX, he usually has the best prices around:

Just to reiterate what deeloc already said... Bosch makes the Nissan original part... so by insisting on buying it from a Nissan parts dealer, you are paying another 30 bucks a sensor (or more perhaps) for the little Nissan logo. You can buy the Bosch OEM part from www.oxygensensors.com, plug it in and and save yourself 60 bucks to boot.

But of course, it's up to you.
