I replaced my two sensors on my v6 camry 1995. It was easy.
You need a special socket to remove the sensor - it allows the wire to be tucked away while you turn the spark plug like sensor. The local discount auto parts store has em.
I used the Bosch generic sensor - it looks identical to original sensor on the car except that the original was stamped toyota and the other Bosch.
Bosch (actually the auto store) sells the OEM at $225 and the generic at $69. The only difference I could tell is that the OEM has the toyota electrical connector. For the generic, you have to cut the wire of the old sensor and splice it into the wiring of the generic. So you end up using the old connector. It wasn't hard to do.
(I wonder if there is a contractual relationship between Bosch and Toyota that prevents Bosch from selling the sensor with a toyota connector at a near generic price? Why doesn't someone come along and purchase a bunch of new toyota "like" connectors and properly join them to the sensor? Sell the whole thing for $100 and make a $40 profit!)
You can see the rear sensor from the top of the engine but you need to get it from below to access it. I think raised my car a few inches or maybe not at all - don't remember. You need an extender on your socket. It easily came loose..
So that was $440+labor versus $140 +$5 socket to replace the two sensors.
