Not sure where to get it but get a bosch direct reaplcement they seem to be good and ive read problems of people using NGK.
As for how hard to replace? Ask stan lol.

I had that problem ans stan said it was a loose fuel pipe!! might be worth checking
I got mine from here, http://www.justlambda.co.uk/
a couple of years ago worked fine :)
dont put a universal one on !
get the Bosch one
LOL...
if its playing ball...its a doddle to change,
if its being an arse, alla laines, I had to remove downpipe, cut the old sensor off, drill out the remainder, and weld a new threaded boss on!

Shame i cant get rid of the friggin wheel woble.
Had it tracked and got raped for £41 for the pleasure of it (seized track rod end aparently).
Made 0 difference.
dont put a universal one on !
get the Bosch one
so you fit the new one then ?? it worked sorted problem?
took it to a place and they run a diagnostic thing and said it was working properly:S
!
sounds daft, but have u looked for a leak given that u can smell fuel
Just about to get one of these.
Have a choice of the NGK one (direct fit) for £40
Or a Bosch Universal 3 wire one for £25
Both new, surely it should be the bosch? Only prob is it's not direct fit!
Oh and whats the best way to remove this mofo? Spanner and hammer?
no, get neither of those
my NGK one started to fail in about 14 months
get the Bosch DIRECT fit one
