Default couple quick questions (o2&mirror tilting)

Ok so i got my CEL light on took it to auto zone and im getting bank 1 sensor 2 so im looking on ebay motors and a few other sites and i am kinda confused on which one to buy cause they arent listed (bank/sensor) like the codes. How do i know im getting the right one? do i just need to look for rear downstream or something else ? Also i noticed when i go in reverse my mirrors dont tilt anymore did i possible click something and turn that option off or is it broke ? Any help would be greatly appriciated!

Mirror tilt is turned off if your mirror switch is set in the middle. If you set it in the full right or full left the mirrors will tilt when you reverse

You'll want the rear sensor driver's side for bank one sensor #2.

I would not buy the one with the wires. I'd want the one with connectors so its plug and play versus cut and splice. But that's just me... I prefer going the easy way when possible. Unless, it's already been replaced once before. The OEM O2 sensor has connectors for ease of replacement.

Yes i didnt realize that wasnt the plug and play. i am deff trying to get the plug and play one. Are alot of these universal for front and rear? Im just worried i am going to order the wrong one. These things arent too descriptive some just say rear some just say front and others say before cat, after cat they all are listed different !!!!!

My O2 sensor went bad 2 days ago too and I went to a indy shop that used OEM parts. They said aftermarket ones will lead to more trouble down the road. Paid $320 for labor and parts.

i appriciate the input but i found a guy that will do the labor for $50 and i am looking to spend about $60-$80 for parts so i am willing to roll the dice on a aftermarket one. $320 is way too much for me i would feel taken advantage of at that price!
